Noise Pollution
I want my privacy back. The loud music across the street has caused sleep deprivation. A noise pollution law like CO has, would be great. Music that loud should be against the law, anyway! I should be able to go into my yard without hearing vulgar rap, 24 hours a day. In my home the noise vibrates my eyes & windows. NM needs to adopt a noise ordinance law that prevents this type of abuse from happening.
Why is this important?
My petition is about being able to live in peace within my home. The trailer across the street has had their stereo blasting since September. My dad died in October & my mother broke her hip in November. I couldn't even grieve in peace. The music was so loud, I couldn't even hear my mother on the phone at times. The sheriff has came out twice. Within hours, the stereo is turned back up so loud that it's rattling my windows in my home. I can't turn the tv up high enough because of the vibration of the bass from their stereo. I have a beautiful acre on the edge of the Gila National Forest. I can't go into my yard to work my garden in the summer, or just to relax. I can't even read a book in my home, my favorite pastime. I can't escape the noise. When I have asked these people anything, I am screamed at with more vulgar language. I live alone, my voice needs to be heard. Three generations live in the trailers moved in across the street. All I am asking for is some peace & quiet in my home. CO has incredible laws in regard to people violating your privacy with their loud music. Why can't we adopt some of those laws? I just want the loud music to stop. I own my home, I can't just leave, I love it here.
