An order of immediate cessation of activity, a monetary fine and a warning of closure hanging over the music conservatory Manuel Castillo at Baños street . The Delegation of Urban and Environment of the City of Sevilla , who heads the council Maximiliano Vilchez has opened disciplinary proceedings against the educational institution as a result of a complaint from a neighbor by "noise " emitted by musical instruments used by students in classes . The Socialist Group believes that local government should pay more attention to disciplinary city streets with bars and noisy pedestal than a music conservatory , pointing to the city of Seville have sought political advantage to be a center of ownership autonomic .

The open record indicates that the measurements with sound level meter from the outside of the building have indeed recorded sounds above the allowed decibels , so it has issued an "unfavorable " report which stresses that the conservatory incurs a administrative infringement considered "very serious" according to the law: " the noisy measurements source object -musical instruments - is located in the building of the conservatory , outside the home affected by noise and separated by a distance of 4.25 meters. " And states: " Taken as measuring point the balcony of the house affected by noise , at microphone sound level meter at a distance of 1.5 meters from the front of the house , in order to minimize the effects of sound on the measure. for temporary evaluation periods , day and evening, we calculated the time of operation of the noise source on the opening of the conservatory , I scored in finding sheet measures. "

The record imposes a financial penalty of 1,500 euros, orders the opening of the file naming an instructor and a secretary , such as is required , order the " immediate cessation of the emitting source " and corrective measures so that the sound does not exceed decibels set by law. Note that the facility be closed if no orders given within specified time voluntarily comply .

Kim, I'm really glad and thankful that you didn't say "dangerous observation"! :lol:

Just for the records, to not render your remark useless in case I ever would change the current signature...

The solution is so obvious......just remove the strings from all the instruments.
