Contact:
Municipal Licensing and Standards Dept.

Toronto and East York District: (416) 392-0384
(Victoria Park to Keele St., south of Eglinton)

Some people turn to the police and in cases of a noisy neighbour, that's often enough to turn down the volume - and the tension. But in the case of a business that's bugging you after hours, you have to contact the city's Municipal Licensing and Standards Dept.

First what the bylaw actually says:
It prohibits loudspeakers or other amplification devices from reaching high levels anywhere in the city between 11pm and 7am and before 9am on Sundays and stat holidays.

If a nearby business is disturbing the peace during those times, an investigator or officer is assigned to do an investigation. They go to the site...with a noise meter to determine if the noise is outside the acceptable levels. If necessary, they issue a notice of violation or order to have that situation corrected.

The complainants are anonymous.
