The organ grinder sound of an ice cream truck, when played all day and into the night, is grating on the nerves of many Long Beach residents and City Councilman Dee Andrews has responded.
The Sixth District Long Beach City Council member is seeking to have ice cream trucks regulated in the 50-square-mile city, following years of complaints by residents.
"Hey folks wondering if I'm the only one living close to the beach who is getting a little punchy from the ice cream truck jingle. For some of us this is some serious noise pollution," Chris Severs commented July 1 to Patch.
Tina Kline responded, "I hear it all..... the time as well. He parks and plays that music over and over for hours on end. My six year old grand daughter couldn't even stand it, she wanted to go say something to him. I would like to sit in front of his home and play some really bad song over and over to see how he likes it. I hope the law is passed that he can only play the music while he is moving. OMG he came back as I'm writing this and it's 7:40pm NOT AGAIN!http://belmontshore.patch.com/groups/opinion/p/i-scream_d66d1256#" rel="nofollow">
