DANBY, N.Y. (WHCU) — Danby officials are keeping an ear to the streets.

A proposed law would ban unreasonable noises in the area. Town Supervisor Joel Gagnon tells WHCU subjectivity is a factor.

He says some residents have become annoyed with certain sounds, such as gunfire and dirt bikes.

Officials are busy revising the proposal. A public hearing will happen in the coming months.
