Brian Yates
Alderman-at-Large, Ward 5
City of Newton, MA
Blasting and Noise
- Some of you have contacted me concerning
the impact of construction in your neighborhoods. The
noise ordinance restricts the sound of some elements of
construction and is enforced by the Police Department
(617-552-7258). Blasting is regulated by the Fire
Prevention Bureau of the Fire Department (617-552-7275).
The Inspectional Services Department enforces the
Building Code and Zoning Ordinance (617-552-7014). If
problems cannot be solved by these agencies, call the
Citizen Assistance Office at (617) 552-7115. If all else
fails, call me or any of the other Alderman.
