No leaf-blower or comprehensive noise ordinance in the Town code
The Town of Rye has its own eCode tree (RY0107) with small two-digit chapter numbering. There is no Chapter 158, no Noise chapter, and no leaf-blower-specific ordinance of the Town's own. The only noise-adjacent provision is Chapter 4 (Amusements), which prohibits operating loudspeakers/announcing devices/horns for advertising or attracting patrons in the unincorporated area — that is an advertising-noise rule, not a leaf-blower regulation. The Town's unincorporated portion is a sliver after the City of Rye, Rye Brook, and Port Chester carved out their territory; Town Hall sits at 222 Grace Church Street in Port Chester.
