Description
Previous issue 1234412, which was closed. The same landscapers didn't come on Tuesday...they showed up yesterday (Thursday) before 7am. I guess they think they are slick. I know this is minor compared to some of the issues on here but it's a nuisance, annoying and a complete disregard for the neighbors. We don't want to hear gas leaf blowers, weed eaters and such that early in the morning.
Thank you!

Please see UPDATED code section below with permissible specific times. There was a typo. My apologies.

Additionally, your frustration with the early time is understandable; however, contacting your council representative for your district would be the better place to start with amending the times within the ordinance.
Hope this provides a little more clarity.
