Enforcing noise law would be nice idea

Last week there was an interesting juxtaposition of two articles on the front page. One proclaimed the news that the City of Everett had been named an All-American City. Right next to that article was one detailing how Lynnwood police had enforced the city noise ordinance, citing a driver for having his car stereo turned up way too loud.

While I am happy and proud that Everett has been named an All-American City, I would gladly trade that designation for enforcement of Everett’s noise ordinance against those obnoxious loud car stereos. I think that would make a greater difference in quality of life for most Everett residents.
