Best Answer

It is similar to a traffic ticket as far as your record. An ordinance is a local law or 'rule' that is not put in place by the state. It is usually either the county or the township. Most of the time, depending on the nature of the ordinance violation, the charge won't be considered a 'criminal act' or a misdemeanor. Therefore, it may not show on a criminal record.

An ordinance is a municipal law, rule or regulation that applies within the particular town or city limits. City ordinances can range from no unleashed dogs off private property to no open containers of alcohol to no unregistered vehicles on private property. In many cases violations with fines can be issued by municipal officials or police.

What is the city ordinance on noise in philippi wv?

The city of Philippi West Virginia has an existing noise ordinance. We are in the process of adopting a new noise ordinance. The noise levels in the city have climbed drastically in recent years. We are probably going to adopt a new ordinance modeled after the noise ordinance that is in effect in Morgantown West Virginia. This ordinance covers every problem regarding noise within Philippi. In the current ordinance noise is measured by disciples. Not many jurisdictions have a meter to measure. In addition, a decimeter needs to be calibrated on a regular basis. The new ordinance states that any noise disturbance from a motor vehicle that can be heard from a distance fifty feet is in violation of the ordinance. The new ordinance defines what is not permitted from house trucks etc.
