               Except as allowed in subsection (d) below, no person shall operate or cause to be
               operated any source of sound in such a manner as to create a sound level which at
               its peak exceeds the limits set forth for the use occupancy categories in Table 1
               when measured at or beyond the point on the property line closest to the dwelling
               located on the property from which the sound complaint originates. For purposes of
               measurement, the back of the curb, the outside edges of driveways, fences, hedges,
               or other physical features commonly associated with property boundaries are presumed
               to be at a point which is at or beyond the property line. In all cases the maximum
               sound level permitted by use occupancy shall be determined based on the use occupancy
               of the property from which the sound originates and not by the use occupancy of any
               surrounding property. Sound which originates from a dwelling unit in a duplex or other
               multifamily housing unit shall be measured from any point which is at least 25 lineal
               feet, whether inside or outside a building, from the nearest point of the enclosed
               or habitable space of the dwelling unit from which the sound originates.

               No property owner shall allow a noise-related nuisance or health or safety hazard
               to be created or maintained by or on account of tenants of the property owner. For
               purposes of this subsection, a noise-related nuisance or health or safety hazard shall
               be deemed to exist when a tenant or group of tenants at a specific location receives
               a third citation for a noise ordinance violation pursuant to this article. The property
               owner shall be liable for the costs of remedying the nuisance or health or safety
               hazard in accordance with the provisions of <a href="" data-chunk-id="COOR_CH9OFMIPR_ARTIINOCOOR_S9-40PEVI" class="section-link" data-product-id="12419">section 9-40</a>. A property owner may be held liable for the costs of abating the nuisance or remedying
               the health or safety hazard only if the property owner has been notified in writing,
               via actual delivery or certified mail, of the first two ordinance violations.

               at a specific location, provided the third violation occurs at least 15 days from
               the date of actual receipt of notice of the second violation. It shall be a complete
               defense to a citation under the subsection if the owner of the real property involved
               can prove that he or she is actively pursuing an eviction process according to law,
