Walnut Creek adopted an ordinance in 2022 to protect access to Planned Parenthood, prohibiting protestors from gathering within 8-feet of its entrances.

Walnut Creek’s city council says it will amend an ordinance that they hope will help reduce noise and harassment near a local Planned Parenthood facility. Police say residents and businesses have made dozens of complaints about loud speech and music from protesters and now the city is taking action. On Tuesday night, people who live and work near the Planned Parenthood on Oakland Boulevard in Walnut Creek told the council about how their lives have been affected by loud protestors.

Now Walnut Creek says it’ll adopt an ordinance prohibiting sound amplifiers like a bullhorn from use within 100 feet of the property’s entrances. There are options for potentially putting up a sign. There may be an option of depicting or painting some sort of line, an indication on the ground or sidewalks," said Ali Wolf, Walnut Creek Asst. City Attorney.
