The City of Bordentown Environmental Commission (BEC) will host a free Earth Talk discussion, “What’s All That Noise? (And What We Can Do About It?)” on Tuesday, April 22, at 7 p.m. at Old City Hall, located at 11 Crosswicks Street in Bordentown.

The discussion will be led by Dan Aubrey, a journalist and associate member of the BEC who earned a New Jersey Noise Enforcement Certificate from Rutgers University’s Noise Technical Assistance Center, Department of Environmental Services, in 2022.

Aubrey will be joined by City of Bordentown Police Sergeant Ryan Lynch and the Burlington County Health Department’s noise investigation division, who will discuss local noise ordinances and enforcement.

Members of Quiet Princeton, a community organization that has advocated for local legislation to regulate the use of gas-powered leaf blowers, will also participate in the conversation.

The event, co-sponsored by the Old City Hall Restoration Committee, is part of the BEC’s ongoing efforts to raise awareness about noise pollution and its effects on health, education, crime, community, and economics. Admission is free, and all are welcome to attend.
