Dear Editor,
I would like to add my voice to those of persons who have complained about the noise made by firecrackers. I have complained about this for years here in Lethem but have never got any satisfaction. There is a law against such noise nuisances – whether it is from firecrackers, or vehicles without exhausts, or loud music – yet nothing is done by the Police. Two weeks ago, loud music could be heard for many hours, several blocks away. And just Monday morning at 2.15 am, a vehicle was playing loud music, and in violation of the curfew hours. The Police should know exactly who are the vendors of these devices as well as the perpetrators of the offences. Both elderly people and dogs are affected. Why, year after year, is no action taken?
Sincerely,
Clairmont Lye
