Without intending to limit the generality of § 295-1, the following acts are hereby declared to be examples of loud, disturbing, and unnecessary noise in violation of § 295-1:
A.
The playing use or operation of any radio receiving set, television, musical instrument, phonograph, stereo, or other machine or device for the producing or reproducing of sound in such a manner as to disturb the peace, quiet and comfort of neighboring inhabitants or with louder volume than is necessary for convenient hearing for persons who are in the room, vehicle or chamber in which the machine or device is operated and who are voluntary listeners. The operation of such a set, instrument, phonograph, machine or device so that it is clearly audible at a distance of 100 feet from the building, structure, or vehicle in which the sound originates shall be prima facie evidence of a violation of § 295-1.
B.
Yelling, shouting, hooting, whistling or singing on the public streets,
particularly between the hours of 10:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m., or at
any time or place which annoys or disturbs the quiet, comfort or repose
of any persons in any office, dwelling, hotel, motel or other type
of residence or of any persons in the vicinity.
C.
The keeping of animals or birds which, by causing frequent or long-continued
noise, disturbs the comfort or repose of any person in the vicinity;
but nothing herein contained is intended to apply to a dog pound or
kennel licensed in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
D.
No person shall sound a horn, warning or signaling device on any
vehicle, residence or structure which emits an unreasonably loud or
harsh sound for an unnecessary or unreasonable period of time. Provisions
shall be made by the owner of an emergency warning/signaling device
for that device to be turned off in a timely manner after the device
has served its purpose of signaling an emergency.
