A couple have been fined £1,672 after a council received multiple complaints about loud music and shouting during parties.Dana Guile and Bogdan Carlota, of Smith Street, Scunthorpe, appeared at Grimsby Magistrates' Court on 20 January after continuing to cause a nuisance despite having their speakers and television confiscated and being served with legal warnings.Environmental health officers and Humberside Police executed a warrant at the property after excessive noise could be heard from the next street.North Lincolnshire councillor John Davison said there was a "zero-tolerance approach to those who ignore warnings".
He said: "Neighbours may make noise from time to time, but it should never cause distress."We take a zero-tolerance approach to those who ignore warnings and show complete disregard for their community's right to peace and quiet."Where necessary we will carry out seizures of noise making equipment from those who ignore their neighbours' right to a good night's sleep."The pair were each fined £440, plus a £176 surcharge and £220 in costs, which came to a total of £1,672.
The court also granted a forfeiture order for the seized equipment.Listen to highlights from Lincolnshire on BBC Sounds, watch the latest episode of Look North or tell us about a story you think we should be covering here.
