We live in a townhome community. Our neighbor of roughly 20 years has a set of large wind chimes hanging in a tree which is in front of our houses. On windy (even mildly breezy) days/ nights, the chimes clang loudly and incessantly. We've asked several times to have him remove or relocate them as it prevents us from getting any sleep on such evenings. He has yet to make any gestures in regards to our pleas. Do we have any legal course available to request a cease and desist? I've considered calling the police on nights when the noise is excessive, but thought that was, in itself, excessive. thanks

You could argue it is a private nuisance. Depending on how noisy it is will determine if you could win in court.
