How can I get updates from my neighborhood and/or City Council representative?

Provo City has 34 official neighborhoods and each has a Neighborhood Chair. Each neighborhood has its own way of handling communication with its residents. Some meet regularly while others meet only as needed. To receive updates on when meetings are scheduled or to receive updates on current issues from your City Council representative, use the online signup form and choose which types of email you'd like to receive.
How do I get an exemption to the noise ordinance?

The city has a well established noise policy found in chapter 9.06 of our code book. The amount of noise that is acceptable is determined by the decibels produced. The ordinance does allow for exceptions for sounds created by parades, carnivals, special public social events, or special construction projects.

An exemption is granted by a permit from the Mayor. If you are interested in an exemption, please contact Tracy Orme in the Mayor's office at 801-852-6105 or torme@provo.org.

Each exemption is issued under the condition that it can be revoked. It is expected that during the event the applicant will work with police if complaints are filed to accommodate the reasonable needs of neighbors.
What happens when a zoning violation is reported to the City?
- First, a zoning officer determines if a zoning violation exists.
- If the zoning officer determines the property is not in compliance with City zoning ordinances, a notice of violation is sent to the property owner. The notice includes a time frame to bring the property into compliance.
- If the time frame elapses without compliance, the case is referred to the City’s Legal Department.
- The Legal Department issues a letter informing the property owner that the City intends to file criminal charges.
- Most cases are resolved without the need to file a criminal action with the courts.
