No more noise about noise?

During last night's Public Safety Committee meeting, council members discussed the whole issue of trying to limit noise from motorcycles and other vehicles in the borough. But by the end of the meeting, council members couldn't seem to find a resolution to the problem. Police Chief Scott Bohn said that the issue is difficult because it is a moving problem.

Councilwoman Holly Brown, who first brought up the issue at last month's meeting, said she wanted to hand out letters to motorcyclists advising them to be respectful.
But Borough Manager Ernie McNeely said the borough has an ordinance in place preventing people from putting papers on vehicles, in order to prevent a litter problem.

After the meeting, Councilman Stephen Bond said the issue seems dead, though he did say if more citations were given out, it could send a lesson that people need to be respectful. Brown said she is not certain if she will bring the issue up again at next month's committee meeting.
