Cops Bust Pony Pen

by thinkrevelry

On Monday, April 26th, the police shut down a show at the Pony Pen. Located at 650 E. 36th St., the venue hosted Black Death All-Stars and Shadows of Creation.

According to the police officer on the scene, one can obtain a “noise permit” to be allowed to play music.

You can review the actual Savannah Code of Noise Ordinance from the city’s website.

———————

To sum up, here are some ways the Pony Pen can comply with the noise ordinance:

1. Play at a lower volume until 7PM

2.Obtain a permit to play much louder until 11PM.

3.Get signed approval from neighboring residences, thus proving not a disturbance, and have those neighbors call them directly instead of the police.

4. Get authorization to be considered an “outdoor concert” or “theatrical performance” at least 50 feet away at 90decibels.

According to the city, the homeowner, not the renter, pays anywhere from $60-$110.oo for the violation.
