Dear [recipient's name]:

I am writing to you regarding the city's noise ordinance that states that residents cannot make disruptive noise later than 1 a.m. I believe that this policy should be changed to an earlier hour, so that the policy states that residents cannot make disruptive noise later than 11 p.m. The local college students tend to take advantage of the current policy and make noise well beyond the 1 a.m. time, and 1 a.m. is entirely too late anyway for residents to be disturbed by loud noise.

Please let me know how I can discuss this issue with a city policymaker or pursue getting the current noise policy changed. You may call me at the phone number listed at the top of this letter. Thank you for promptly addressing my concerns.

Sincerely,
