Improper Metro noise complaint rejection: claim

The city of Frederiksberg is violating regulations for handling complaints about construction noise by rejecting a complaint by a resident to a Metro construction site.

Proper procedure in such cases is to allow environmental appeals board Natur- og Miljøklagenævnet issue a decision, as has been the case in neighbouring Copenhagen.

Frederiksberg’s refusal to pass on the complaint comes despite the city being informed on multiple occasions of proper procedure.

Frederiksberg maintains it is acting properly, but accepted that should it be forced to allow Natur- og Miljøklagenævnet to decide, it would allow them to re-assess past complaints.
