Noise complaints over the birds
Magistrates have supported Boston Borough Council’s decision to serve noise abatement notices on the owners of several cockerels after the Council received a complaint about noise.
Noise monitoring equipment was used to record the frequency and the noise level coming from the property where the birds were being housed. Following the service of the notices the owners of the cockerels exercised their right to appeal the notices. At a hearing at Lincoln Magistrates Court, the Council robustly defended its decision to serve the notices.
Cllr Deborah Evans, Portfolio Holder for Environmental Services at Boston Borough Council said: “Boston Borough Council takes complaints over all types of noise nuisance seriously.
