Noise and Nightlife in Raleigh

Noise and Nightlife in Raleigh

The City of Raleigh is considering updates to both its Noise and Nightlife Permit Ordinance (specific to commercial establishments). We want to make sure that people who live, work, and spend time in the city have a chance to share their thoughts. Whether you enjoy going out at night, live near nightlife areas, or run a business, your feedback matters.

This survey will take about 5-7 minutes to complete. Thank you for your time and input!
