Be a Good Neighbor

Parties/Noise

Keep parties fairly small, ideally with 3-4 guests per tenant.
Pick outside trash up promptly after a party.
Make sure your guests follow parking regulations.
Use respectable language while outside.
Keep the noise level low, especially at night when neighbors are sleeping.
Let your neighbors know a day or two in advance of your party. Give them your phone number so they can call you, instead of police, if there is a problem.
Encourage your guests to use indoor restrooms.
Don’t use beer ads, bottles or cans as decorations on your porch or in windows.
Keep your party inside and quiet after 11 p.m. Toledo has a noise ordinance.
