The law to prevent noise: the amendment that will restore peace to the residents of Haifa

(haipo) - The members of the city council from the "Greens" faction - Moti Blitzblau and Yael Shenar, propose to amend the by-law for the prevention of noise and the adaptation of the municipal law to the laws of the state, with the aim of maintaining the quality of life of the residents and reducing the noise in the evening and at night.

At the next council meeting, a proposal to amend the by-law for Haifa (noise prevention), which was drafted in 1984, will be discussed. The amendment to the law is submitted by city council members from the Green Movement - Moti Blitzblau and Yael Shenar. In their proposal, Blitzblau and Shenar ask to update the working hours allowed for repairs and renovations in residential areas , and adapt to the national regulations used today.

The current by-law, whose sections 4 and 5 state that no renovation work or installation of facilities in residential buildings may be carried out between the hours of 22:00 p.m. at night and 06:00 a.m. the next day - including on weekends and holidays. 06:00 to 22:00.

The law does not comply with the changes that have taken place in the national regulations

Councilors Shanar and Blitzblau emphasize that the law as it stands today is not in line with the changes that have taken place in the national regulations in recent years. The Knesset has already passed the amendment to the permitted working hours, and currently they are limited to the period between 07:00 in the morning and 19:00 in the evening. Many local authorities throughout the country have adopted these regulations, but in Haifa the working hours remain unupdated, which causes great discomfort among residents, especially when it comes to prolonged renovation periods.

The proposal of the Green faction aims to correct this situation and adapt the municipal law to the laws of the state, with the aim of maintaining the quality of life of the residents and reducing the noise in the evening and at night.

It is important to note that many residents of Haifa are not at all aware of the municipal by-law on noise, and rely on the national noise law. This lack of knowledge often leads to neighbor disputes and even to the submission of "false" complaints to the municipal hotline or the police, when these are not actually relevant. For example, when works take place in the early hours of the morning, for example at 6:00, residents bothered by the noises call to complain, without knowing that their complaint has no legal validity, according to the municipal bylaw.

This is also true when it comes to works carried out late in the evening, after 20:00 or 21:00 p.m. for example, when young children are already asleep, which often lead to tensions and difficulties between neighbors. Changing the law, so that it matches the national noise law, will oblige the workers to act in accordance with the permitted hours, as is required in other regions of the country, thus reducing confusion and unnecessary conflicts between residents.

  1. The noise from the mosque is overwhelming:
    Loudspeakers with impossible decibels - this was probably done on purpose by the Ayman Odeh troops

  2. And what if the noise of the motorcycles is horrifyingly loud like alarms.
    Especially at Dolphin Junction and the improved cars that ruin our night night after night. Do something about it

  3. I didn't understand anything from the article. Work hours should be fixed so that it is allowed from 7 in the morning until 5 in the evening. . 10 no more than that

  4. We will see them working against the noise intifada from Arab cars with upgraded underground engines in the Carmel Ridge around 02:00.

  5. Finally some action in Haifa, I have a feeling that all the businessmen have joined together and we won't do anything.

  6. I also think that the noisy mechanics and noisy ATVs, it's time to put an end to it. Because it's more and more disturbing than all the late jobs

  7. The municipality of Haifa itself carries out work near Kastra between 10 pm and 5 am twice a week "with permission" and ignores the residents of Naut Peres which is under their windows. No complaints to the municipality helped

  8. An excellent law, the time will come, the contractors are only interested in money, we want a little peace of mind

  9. Everyone puts a stop to the law even if they set hours when noise is prohibited, neither the municipality nor the police help in this matter, what with trash removal at 4 in the morning, what with the noise of youth at 2 in the morning. What with unreasonable music volumes. If there are laws, there is no one to enforce them.

  10. I am waiting for the next elections for Anat Kalish to return and after that we will wait another four years for Yona Yahav to return and then maybe maybe maybe maybe .... and again maybe ....

  11. Following on from the other types of intolerable noise, I would like to add the noise of the air conditioners that produce the noise of the shock waves and crowd the sound waves in the public environment

  12. Why only renovations? All types of unreasonable and continuous noises starting at 8 pm
    Do not allow loud music above a certain decibel
    Do not allow the playing of the piano, drums, organ, violin, any musical instrument, opera singing, sports that produce nuisance noise on the floor starting at 8 in the evening and before 8 in the morning and prohibit it completely on Saturdays
    In gardens and courtyards do not allow gatherings and parties after 23:00 p.m
    Do not allow annoying odors such as the smell of a barbecue after 23:00 p.m
    Do not allow the start of drilling work at a construction site or the entry of construction trucks into neighborhoods
    before 07:00.
    Do not allow noisy stays, talking or any kind of noise on the balconies of a multi-tenant building after 01:00 at night and before 08:00 in the morning
    Birthday parties in the yard of a multi-tenant building including a private yard prohibit amplification equipment of any kind and continuous music playback for over 30 minutes. Ban microphones and amplifiers completely and limit such noise nuisance to two hours and ban it on Saturdays.
    Prohibition of smoking any kind of utensils including hookah and cigarettes on the balconies bordering neighbors' balconies, in stairwells, building plazas and under the windows of other apartments
    Motorcycles and pickup trucks with loud engines - prohibit entry into residential neighborhoods from 8 in the evening and before 8 in the morning.

    In a jungle country you need clear rules for everything.
    Because people are used to behaving like animals due to a lack of national education to consider others.

  13. Complaining for months about Haifa becoming a city of car races, did they do something? not. The main thing is that there are municipal enforcement cars that, apart from giving parking reports, do nothing and sit in explosions. The whole sea area, the sea road, the Carmel. Enhanced motorcycle and car noises. I asked the municipality to install speed cameras, they sent me to the police to ask and I say the police don't come to murder cases, so will they come for a camera? No enforcement, no punishment.

  14. There was a party on Disraeli Street on Simchat Torah from noon and it wasn't until six thirty that the police came to shut them up after hours of reports that all the neighborhoods in the area heard the noise from the excessive party. Without enforcement it is worth nothing to update

    • The head of the Shin Bet has already said in response to a question. There is no police.

  15. And what about the clearly unreasonable noise from the weddings in Kabevir that the residents of Western Carmel suffer from. So what if, according to the law, noise is allowed until 23:00 p.m. This allows the residents of Kavbir to turn the courtyards and floors of the houses into wedding halls and to install amplification systems that do not allow the residents of West Carmel to hear television and/or conduct conversations inside their private homes?

  16. This is good, but lacking, we must add noise limits to take into account traumatized people and people with invisible disabilities such as autistics, a mechanism that will limit noise works near them and this includes a complete stop of projects near educational institutions!! (or the evacuation of the frameworks)

  17. Regarding the law against noise, I remember that on paper it was forbidden for gardeners to operate the pruning machines even in the afternoon. It is a very loud noise and also not so effective because the grass or green fences grow much faster than pruning. In Europe it is forbidden. Oops, I forgot we're not in Europe.

    • There are few gardeners who observe the law of not using a blower, and even gardening work can be done with less noise

  18. The paper tolerates everything!!
    Endless promises though
    Nothing actually happens in our ghost town.
    Everyone does what they want and obeys the law.
    digging asphalt in the dead of night,
    A mechanical sweeper before 6 am and when you call the municipality hotline - they deny it and ask for a photo as proof.
    Are you fed up!!
    Yona Yahav is aware of this but chooses to ignore it.
    The wild west is here!!!

    • More importantly, take care of the noise of the neighbors from above, who knock a ball, marbles, drag, jump, walk on high heels. It's called taking care of the noise, it's a nuisance, and don't send the tenants who suffer from the noise to bring proofs and recordings and noise meter measurements because it doesn't make sense. Deal with the noise offenders, through the municipal inspection

    • You are very right. We all miss the old times. 🇮🇱 And where, where are they, those people with the ponytails and the sarafan?

  19. Also lowering the horns of the rescue forces mainly in the evening when there is almost no traffic or not to be activated unnecessarily

    • To enforce, to enforce, to enforce, the matter of the noise of the air conditioners causes congestion and the waves are intolerable in the entire public space

    • Continuing the response of his honor.
      What about renovations in a residential neighborhood?
      Today the law allows renovations
      until 20.00 on Saturdays or holidays
      No renovations. By the way, during the rest hours
      14-16 do not exist at all in the renovations.
      It is possible all day until 20.00.
      Really, really cheeky.
