[Highland Park] Re: Motorcycles and the noise ordinance
by Margaret Krumm 27 May '12

27 May '12

I should have noted at the beginning that my contact with the police is what sparked my original post about the motorcycles. I called Zone 5 and asked what specifically can be done and was told verbatim, "There is nothing illegal about them," and he went further to say that the city noise ordinance does not cover motorcycles, just music levels coming from vehicles. That is true. Here is the city code: https://www.city.*pittsburgh* .pa.us/pers-depo/Exam/TITLE6.PDF Does the state code override/add to the city code? Sorry if I'm making a bigger deal of this than it deserves. Let's take any further discussion of this off the list to keep from annoying people who sleep just fine. :) On Sun, May 27, 2012 at 5:42 PM, Guru <chefguru1(a)yahoo.com> wrote: > The City's noise ordinance makes a specific distinction for noise related > to/from vehicles. > http://www.pacode.com/secure/data/067/chapter157/s157.11.html > > The PA Code already specifies decibel levels for motorcycles, which > happens to be lower than what is required for other vehicles. > > As a motorcycle rider, let me assure you that there are a number of > motorcycle rider associations with nation-wide memberships and multiple > local chapters around the Pittsburgh area (not biker gangs, but biker > education and advocacy groups) that have powerful lawyers on retainer that > regularly go to bat to defend motorcycle rights across the country. > > I'm not trying to rain on your parade, but if you think a few letters from > some of the neighbors will make a difference, you should be aware that this > will be met by opposition from a number of motorcycle advocacy groups that > already have connection at the State and National level. > > Are you certain that none of these "ridiculously loud motorcycles flying > through the neighborhood" aren't actually some of the neighbors that you > might be able to talk to about this issue?

It's old, but it works. Not hi-tech! Old school. Analog speed dial. Does have elevation. Sometimes the belt skips when running on it. Great otherwise. Will have to take a few parts off to get out our basement door. Email if interested. Thanks! Kevin Sent from my iPhone

[Highland Park] BRYANT STREET MARKET BEER UPDATE
by Robert Collins 27 May '12

27 May '12

As expected, I heard from TONS of neighbors. Which was the desired effect. Did anyone see the episode of the Simpson's where Homer was distilling booze in his basement during Springfield's prohibition? He was nicknamed the " The Beer Baron"....That's all I could think about when reading the emails. If you have not seen it, check it out, it's a classic. Secondly, I'm not running for Mayor. Ok, enough with the humor. On one side of the fence we have an overwhelming majority in favor of the store selling beer, roughly 90%. On the other side of the fence , we have a very small minority not in favor of the store selling beer. roughly 10% Would seem like a no-brainer right? The problem is, the few concerns that the minority have are very important to me. #1 - People drinking beer in the store, I am not in favor of this at all and could be a deal breaker. Although I think very highly of our current clientele, we could attract a new type of crowd.(although I think that's unlikely, pricing usually takes care of that). The license stipulates the seating of 30 and consumption on the premises. I honestly think we would have very few people sitting and drinking in the store and that most will just buy beer and leave. I will inquire about the drinking in the store with our attorney. We must have seating for 30, or no license. The seating area needs to be 300 square feet, that's not huge. Drinking in the store is the biggest concern of mine. #2 - The dynamic of the store will change, and maybe not for the better. I had some comments that the store would have less groceries, but we would do our best to maximize the space. I have made a living selling food for the last 20+ years, that's what I know. I would never change the store just to make more money and not have it feel right. People have responded wonderfully to what I have done so far, and selling beer could alter that. The only thing I really know about beer is drinking it. #3 - You can buy beer anywhere, but you can't have Bryant Street Market anywhere. Excuse me while I wipe a tear. Another very good point that I did not initially take into consideration. People seem to like the store the way it is, as we add new products all the time and it is family friendly. I really like the serenity of the store, especially around holidays when everywhere else you go it's a madhouse. I think with the lines of beers we would carry, that would dictate the crowd we would get. I am going to D's in Regent Square and the IGA on Forbes in Oakland for some investigative work. I'll be in touch with all findings, this is by no means a done deal so stay tuned. Thanks Rob Bryant Street Market 5901 Bryant Street Pittsburgh PA 15206 Phone: (412) 661 8720 Hours: Mon-Sat- 8 AM to 8 PM Sun- 9AM to 5PM
