Upon complaint to the Board of Selectmen by five citizens disturbed
by the excessive noise and disorder of the patrons and on the premises
of a nearby commercial public entertainment or amusement establishment,
the Selectmen shall conduct a hearing upon proper notice to the proprietor
and/or owner of said establishment, at which the Selectmen shall determine
whether or not the patrons of the establishment are unreasonably disturbing
its neighbors. If the Selectmen shall determine that the patrons of
the establishment are unnecessarily disturbing its neighbors, they
may require the proprietor to procure and pay for police attendance
on the premises for the purpose of maintaining peace, order and quiet
during appropriate hours.
