ORIENTAL BAY NOISES
MOTOR-CYCLES AND SPEEDS
BOATS
' The objectionable noises made by motor-cyclists along the Oriental Bay Parade at night were complained of by Councillor W. Duncan at last, night's mooting of the City Council. He asked if the. city inspectors could not be sent there to effect an improvement;
. Councillor J. Burns said'that lie had received two' deputations on this subject in a few days. Last Sunday a speedboat on the harbour was particularly objectionable. There were-people ill in the neighbourhood' atthe time. The noise was far worse . than that of the motor-cycles. This "confounded nuisance" needed looking into.
The Mayor agreed that the' noises were a nuisance. The matter was one for-their officer! and for the police. sA.s far as the speed-boats were concerned, it was a matter in which representations would have to be made to the Harbour Board. The speed-boats were a great nuisance.
