THE CITY OF MIAMI MUST PROTECT QUALITY OF LIFE
In most of the nation, the noise and terror for pets is limited to July 4.
Because of the warm winters, people
fire them off on Christmas and New Year’s Eve in Miami.
Shenandoah is one of dozens of
neighborhoods where the ear-splitting bombardment has gotten out of hand.
When I first moved here nearly a
quarter of a century ago, the noise was roughly limited to about 9 p.m. till
12:30 a.m. on July 4 and Dec. 31.
Now, it takes place from a dusk till 3
a.m. on Independence Day, Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve.
People also fire off hundreds of these
noisemakers – long past midnight -- for days leading up to each holiday.
