Limits on construction noise in L.A. (Background Report)

CONSTRUCTION-RELATED NOISE is forbidden by law within the City of Los Angeles (i.e., at Mishkon) before 7:00am or after 9:00pm. That is, any such noise that is loud enough to disturb nearby residents. It includes the delivery of construction materials. (LAMC 41.40a)

Such noise is likewise forbidden within 500 feet of residential buildings on Sundays, as well as on Saturdays or holidays before 8:00am or after 6:00pm. (LAMC 41.40c)


Mishkon does have neighbors who 
reside nearby: next door, across the street, and down the street within 500 feet.

For details (and the penalty for violation), see the municipal code:
