LTC 127-2010 Noise Report: July-September, 2009 Quarter 3-09m MIAMIBEACH OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER NO. LTC # 127-2010 LETTER TO COMMISSION TO: Mayor Matti Herrera Bower and Members of the Cit ommission FROM: Jorge M. Gonzalez, City Manager /~'"~" DATE: April 26, 2010 SUBJECT: Noise Report: July -September, 2 (Quarter 3-09) This Letter to Commission is intended to provide the quarterly report on the implementation of the City's Noise Ordinance, as amended in July, 2008, and as required pursuant to the Administrative Guidelines adopted via resolution on that date. Data for noise reports is collected by calendar year quarters, and includes information as required by the Administrative Guidelines as approved on October 7, 2008. This report includes data from July through September, 2009 (Q3-09). Historically, commercial noise has been the main concern and was the impetus for revisions to the noise ordinance. Beginning with this report and moving forward, the quarterly report will continue to include data on all cases (commercial, residential and other), but the summary will focus on commercial cases. All of the reporting data required by the Administrative Guidelines is presented in table form in Aftachmenf A for commercial cases, and in Attachment B for all cases. Additional data has also been included to provide further information in some areas, as has been requested. Comparable data for commercial cases is available back to and including Q4-07 and is utilized in this report as appropriate. Prior to October, 2007, the classification of cases as commercial versus residential was not consistent enough to provide comparables. For example, prior to October, 2007, cases were grouped as commercial or residential, with nosub-categories. In spot reviews of case files, itwas noted that in some cases for apartments were listed as commercial instead of residential. It would require a manual review of case notes for cases prior to October 2007 to determine if cases were properly classified as residential or commercial. Since October, 2007, the same criteria for commercial cases have been utilized, providing us with a good indication of trends relating to commercial noise complaints. 4(l/HK / CK 3/ JUIV'JCp[6I--UCI, LVV.7 - vv[rnncR wr~~ ~ww~. ~.r+JLJ Complaint/violations history for Q3-09: Quarter three is historically the lowest quarter of the year for the total number of noise complaints opened and that held true through this reporting quarter. For the reporting period of July 1, 2009 to September 30, 2009, the Division opened a total of 599 noise cases. Eleven of the cases were voided. Of the 588 cases with dispositions, 36 of those calls were cancelled by the complainant; as such, their disposition is "cancelled." Since those 36 cases had a disposition of "cancelled," that leaves 552 cases where the disposition was valid/non-valid. The following chart demonstrates the current trends of cases opened, by quarter, since the noise ordinance was approved (total number of cases opened reflects the 11 cases subsequently voided). As you will note, Q3-09 is following previous trends as being the calendar quarter with the fewest cases opened, and reflects fewer cases opened than in the same quarter in 2008 (632), and is the third lowest quarter since Q2/06 when noise reporting began.

"Other" cases are those that do not fall into one of those categories, such as public parks, public right of ways, or waterways. The majority of noise cases continue to be in residential areas. The total number of noise cases opened in residential areas this quarter was 339, or 61.4%, of the 552 valid/non-valid noise cases opened. TOTAL CASES Residential vs. Commercial (Valid /Non-Valid) OF TOTAL CASES RESIDENTIAL 339 61.4% COMMERCIAL 118 21.4% OTHER 95 17.2% TOTAL 552 Commercial Noise Cases: In 03/09, Commercial cases accounted for 118 of these remaining 552 cases opened (21 % of all noise cases opened). This is the fewest numberof commercial noise cases opened since Q4/07. Complaints were received for 116 of those commercial noise cases and two cases were opened as a result of officers witnessing a violation while on patrol. As noted in the following chart, during the same quarter last year (03-08), there were 133 commercial noise cases, while for the last quarter (02-09) there were 141 commercial noise cases.

The second highest number of commercial cases opened was for restaurants (31 of 118); 6 of those cases were deemed valid. The following chart demonstrates the breakdown between establishment types. COMMERCIAL CASES Q3/09 BY TYPE Retail, 5.1% Bar, 10.2% Restaurant, 26.3% Hotel-Condo, 12.7% Hotel, 35.6% Club, 10.2% Cases by Noise Type: Loud Music remains the primary reason for noise calls, with 84% of ALL noise cases opened the result of loud music complaints; that number is higher, 89%, for commercial only noise cases. Valid vs. non-valid As previously noted in other reports, valid cases are those cases whereby "noise" meeting the definition of the noise ordinance is occurring at the time of a Code Compliance Officer's (or Police Officer's) arrival. Anon-valid case disposition is not intended to demonstrate that noise did not occur, only that COMMERCIAL CASES OPENED BY QUARTER (SINCE Q4/07) Page 4 of 5 Noise report -Quarter 3, 2009 noise meeting the standard of the ordinance, and thus a valid violation, was not occurring and could not be witnessed by the Code Compliance Officer (or Police Officer) as would be necessary for a violation to be issued. Of the 118 commercial cases, 23 (19%) of those were deemed valid and 95 (81 %) were closed as non- valid. Of the 23 valid cases 2 resulted in verbal warnings, 10 or the cases resulted in a written warning and 11 were violations that carry fines. As can be seen in the chart below reflecting what percentage of commercial cases is valid vs. non-valid, the percentage of valid cases this quarter is lower than the previous quarter. As requested by the stakeholders, a chart depicting "reasons why non-valid" has been added to the report. These reasons have been used by code officers to explain why the non-valid disposition was concluded. This chart no longer includes cancelled cases, as that has been added as a separate disposition, along with valid and non-valid. This chart depicting the reasons why cases were closed non-valid for commercial cases is attached as Attachment C. Time to arrive Data on "time to arrive" is compiled to assist in determining whether the time between the receipt of a complaint by dispatch and the arrival of a Code Compliance Officer may affect the percentage of cases closed asnon-valid. Of particular interest is whether traffic congestion or multiple calls for various code- related issues may also affect the arrival time at the location of the reported violation, which may determine whether noise that would constitute a violation is still occurring at the officer's time of arrival. The numbers below are for commercial cases and reflect that the time of arrival was actually longer for cases deemed valid. During this quarter, the time from when a call was received by dispatch and the time the code officer arrived at the location of the complaint for a commercial case averaged 22:39 for valid cases, and 20:34 for cases deemed "non-valid." Major Event Periods /Special Events/Special Circumstances There were no major events during this reporting period. However, there was a special circumstance in the form of an ongoing union protest on public property. There were 49 noise complaints for these protests and 6 were deemed valid. These cases were categorized as "other" as opposed to residential or commercial since they occurred on public property. Page 5 of 5 Noise report -Quarter 3, 2009 Another special circumstance was a noise issue with Monument Island. Eleven complaints were received regarding loud music from boats or from people on the island itself. One was deemed valid. These cases were also categorized as "other". Anonymous vs. Known-complainant(s) The report captures whether or not a complainant was anonymous or identified themselves. However, we have found that even on occasions where the complainant is anonymous when the call is made to the dispatcher, the complainant will often speak with the code compliance officer on site. There were 58 anonymous commercial complaints, 2 anonymous complaints with contact made on site and 56 cases with contact information provided. The anonymous complaints represent 49.2% of total commercial cases and represent 53.7% of all commercial non valid cases Time/date of violation As noted in the attachment, fewer commercial cases were opened for noise occurring from 7a to 11 p (44.9 % of all commercial valid/non-valid cases), than from 11 p to 7a (55.1 %). The most number of cases were opened on Sundays in the quarter (24%). Totals lam - 11pm 11p - 7a Valid 23 12 11 Commercial Non-Valid 95 41 54 Appeals Twelve appeals were filed for violations issued during this reporting period. Five were commercial cases and two were residential. Five were classified as "other" and all five of those were from the Carpenter's Union protests at the Loew's Hotel. The outcome is reflected in Attachment D, along with updates that occurred this quarter on appeals filed previously. RECOMMENDATIONSIISSUES/CONCLUSION: The quarter reflects the third lowest number of noise cases opened since the adoption of the new noise ordinance. As in previous quarters, residential noise cases continue to represent the largest percentage of cases opened, with hotel noise cases representing the largest number of commercial noise cases opened. The quarter also had a lower rate of valid closures as compared to previous quarters. The percentage of valid/non-valid varies between residential and commercial cases, with a higher percentage of valid case dispositions for commercial cases. This quarter included two unique circumstances that added additional noise complaints listed under "Other." These two unique circumstances (Carpenter Union Protest and Monument Island noise) represent 60 noise cases opened and listed under "other."
