Sec. 59-A-5.7. Uses constituting public nuisances.
Any use which is found by the board to be a public nuisance, by reason of the emission of dust, fumes, gas, smoke, odor, noise, vibration or other disturbance, is expressly prohibited. No such finding shall be made by the board except after a hearing upon reasonable notice, and any person, the commission or the district council may file a petition with the board for such hearing.
   Editor's note-The Court of Special Appeals held in Thomas Miller v. Maloney Concrete Company, 63 Md.App. 38, 491 A.2d 1218 (1985), that section 59-A-5.7 is a criminal statute and as such is unconstitutionally vague.
