Noise ordinances Communities expect their citizens to respect one another, especially when it comes to noise. If you aren't making noise (stereos, voices, from cars, etc.) between the hours of 8 p.m. and 8 a.m., you should be all right. If not, expect to get a summons for excessive noise that will cost $300 for a first offense and $500 for a second offense.

Trash and recycling Most communities take an active approach in making sure that citizens dispose of trash and recycling on a regular, weekly basis. Some communities will issue fines between $100 and $300 for violations, where others may issue a fine up to $1,250 for not disposing of trash or doing so improperly. The above is an estimation based on average metabolic rates. Differences in gender, food eaten and types of drinks can contribute to differences in BAC level.
