SONC Opposes Proposed Increase to Construction Noise Limits

Posted on 02/13/2024

After our evaluation and review, the Sherman Oaks Neighborhood Council (SONC) opposes the proposed Update to the CEQA Thresholds and Methodology to allow an increase in construction noise level and construction vibrations because the new thresholds are intended to be better suited to the City’s urban nature. The impacts of these reductions of CEQA protections are unknown and the reasons behind the proposed changes are unclear.
