NBC10 Boston spoke with the city's mayor on Monday, at city hall, about the complaints.
"We still have a few things that we're doing background on," Mayor Jay Ruais said.

A Manchester police officer said noise emitting from properties in the city is expected to be at a "reasonable level" by 10 p.m., but could not go into detail.
