Virginia HB166 removes exemption for industrial property from noise ordinances and sets civil penalties.
Virginia HB166 removes the exemption for industrial property from noise ordinances, meaning industrial properties will now be subject to the same noise regulations as other areas. The bill allows localities to adopt a uniform schedule of civil penalties for noise ordinance violations, with fines not exceeding $250 for the first offense and $500 for each subsequent offense. This change aims to ensure consistent enforcement of noise regulations across the state.
