County Tells New Jersey Town To Stop Playing Evening Chimes
KEYPORT, N.J. (Patch.com) — Hey, Keyport, be quiet. That's the message Monmouth County is sending to this tiny, bucolic waterfront town on Raritan Bay.
Every evening around 6 p.m., tiny Keyport — population about 7,000 — broadcasts "Westminster Quarters" from its emergency alert siren behind town hall. It's the same chimes played by Big Ben in London.
