11/15/2018 - Lupinacci Reminds Residents of Leaf Blower Hours of Operation, How to Report a Noise Disturbance

Huntington – Supervisor Chad A. Lupinacci issued a friendly reminder to residents and landscapers operating leaf blowers in the Town of Huntington.

 

“As you perform your fall cleanup projects, please adhere to the Town’s acceptable hours of operation for leaf blowers,” said Supervisor Lupinacci. “The Town strives to balance the needs of property owners who wish to maintain their properties with the rights of residents who wish to enjoy their homes in peace.”

 

To file a leaf blower noise disturbance complaint, use the Town’s At Your Service portal on the Department of Public Safety page: http://www.huntingtonny.gov/public-safety

 

To speed up the Town’s ability to enforce Town Code, leaf blower noise disturbance complaints should include the following information:

 

·         Date(s) and approximate time(s) of violation(s)

·         Address where the violation is occurring

·         Whether it is known if the property owner or a landscaping company is operating the leaf blower

·         If a landscaping company is operating the leaf blower, if possible, include the name and any known/observed contact information for the company

 

The Town Code permits the use of leaf blowers for two hours per day on weekdays between the hours of 8:00 AM and 7:00 PM and for one hour per day on weekends and legal holidays between the hours of 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM. Leaf blower usage outside of those hours and time limitations will be deemed a noise disturbance.
