Noise is the now the issue at hand for the ABC board. WOW. Let us get real people. Virginia for the most part is one of the most visited states in the country. The quality of life is also above normal. We have mountains,beaches and metropolis'. Yet we also have deep rooted hypocrits who run certain organizations (ABC) being one. The board can't even get all agents or supervisors on the same page when it comes to interpreting their very vague regulations, now they want to add noise control(which has nothing to do with alcohol)to the list of regulations that will be interpreted differently by all the agents. Every locality has a different noise ordinance, so how does ABC plan on making the proper adjustments to each locality. This is a classic example of Napoleons Complex. An agency that should be overhauled and probably could be phased out because lack of effectiveness. There are no measurable standards in the agency when it comes time for them to interpret vague and broad reaching regulations, now they want to control something as broad as noise ordinances.The ABC has this chip on there shoulder that they can and will intimidate and strong arm so that businesses will abide by their power. When challenged and they have lost some challenges, they come back with a vengeance of person who has been pushed around and now has power and wields it unnecessarily and without regard for the very people they are to serve. People want to go out and have a good time with loud music and dancing even provcatively. One agents interpretation of noisy and lewd regulation is if his 12 year old daughter would be offended.(It is in a deposition) Well the age for alcohol is 21 not 12 so why should that be the interpretation. They need to be held accountable for their actions, Please leave noise out of it
