ESTABLISHMENTS. Notwithstanding any other law, the department, a

county, a municipality, or a public health district may not require

a food service establishment to obtain a sound regulation permit,

charge a sound regulation fee to an establishment, or otherwise

prohibit sound-related activity at an establishment for sound

arising from the delivery of food, nonalcoholic beverages, food

service supplies, or ice to the establishment if the establishment

accepts delivery of those items for one hour or less between 10 p.m.

and 5 a.m., provided the sound level from the deliveries does not

exceed 65 dBA when measured from the residential property closest

in proximity to the establishment, excluding traffic and other

background noise that can be reasonably excluded.

SECTION 2. This Act takes effect September 1, 2025.
