and Wellesley noise bylaw in effect NOW!!! (2009)
A ban on gas powered leaf blowers should be voted into effect in Wellesley. Not only do they cause most of the noise pollution in Wellesley, they cause significant air pollution.
I, as well as most of the Wellesley residents I know, completely agree with the ban on leaf blowers and an ordinance to limit the start time of construction/demolition. Can we get this put on a ballot again??!
