Orange County adopts county wide noise control law
The Orange County Legislature approved a county wide noise control measure with one dissenting vote. The planning department will draft regulations over four to six months and hold public hearings before adoption. The law targets potential noise from Stewart Airport but avoids naming it. The plan includes creating noise zones and considering zoning uses, activity intensity, timing, nearby land uses, and future area development while leaving enforcement costs and legal expenses as open questions.
