Do you think your neighbourhood is too noisy?
If the answer is yes and you live or work in Vancouver, now’s your chance to sound off about it.
The city says it’s conducting an “extensive review” with the aim of modernizing its Noise Control Bylaw, and is seeking public feedback from people who live, work, play or own businesses in Vancouver.

“The City supports protecting the public’s right to enjoy public spaces without unreasonable noise nuisances, while also supporting economic and cultural activity and growth,” the city said in a Wednesday news release.
In the first phase of its review, the city says it will focus on updating the bylaw to make it easier to understand, improve its processes for responding to noise complaints, and create new education resources about noise regulations.
