Old Westbury Village’s board of trustees recently amended its law governing noise.

Residents are banned from operating equipment such as tractors, cranes or machinery between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. Mondays through Fridays, excluding holidays.

Emergency exceptions may be granted with a permit from the village building inspector, mayor or chief of police.

Violations will carry a fine of between $500 and $10,000. Each day the violation continues will “constitute a separate offense,” according to the local law.
