What Scenarios Could Happen During a Party?

1. If a noise complaint is received by Police Dispatch, the party host could receive a call informing them about the complaint.

2. If the host does not answer the call they will leave a message and call the second number. 

If the second number is not answered they will leave another message.

3. From the time of the first phone call, the party host will have 20 minutes to break up their party.

4. If a second noise complaint is received after the 20 minute grace period, dispatch will send an officer to the residence to deal with the noise.

5. If there are any other problems besides noise violations, then the 20 minute warning does not apply.

 

Be Prepared...for fun, for safety, for the police!

Colorado Mesa University and the City of Grand Junction have teamed up to launch an innovative program to address noise complaints. Party Registration offers CMU students who live off campus the ability to register their party at Student Life and possibly avoid fines.

 

Benefits of the Program

  • Saves party host money (fines), a criminal record, and possible disciplinary actions by CMU.

  • Helps neighbors by taking care of noise and nuisance complaints quickly and efficiently.

  • Saves the city resources by taking action quickly, and easily. 

  • Educates students about partying safely and responsibly; these students may avoid a noise ticket simply because they became a more “informed” party host by stopping in at Student Life.
