SEC. 103.120. SOUNDPROOFING OF PLACES OF AMUSEMENT – WHEN REQUIRED.
 
   (a)   Places of Amusement Included. This section applies to any place of public amusement or recreation for the operation of which a permit from the Board of Police Commissioners is required by this Code and in connection with which any loudspeaking system or public address system is used, or any other method of amplifying music, speech or sound employed.
 
   (b)   Authority of the Board. Whenever, upon notice and hearing, as required by this chapter, the Board shall determine that music or noise from any such place of amusement or recreation, caused by the operation of any loudspeaking system, public address system or other method of amplifying music, speech or sound, interferes with the peace and quiet of a substantial number of persons dwelling in the vicinity as to deprive them of the reasonable enjoyment of their property, the Board may suspend the permit until the offending premises is sound-proofed in a manner that, in the judgment of the Board, will be effective to eliminate the annoyance complained of.
