We the citizens of Cole County would like to change and amend the noise ordinance of Cole County, Missouri to be similar to the "Nuisance" Exhibits (Article VII) of the City of Jefferson City

Simply put, we would like to chance the times that loud music and fireworks are allowed from 11pm CST to 10pm CST except for New Years Eve and the 4th of July.
