      There’s a regulation in my region about pollution within 10m of a doorway or window leading to where someone works.

      My landlady works in the building.

      Leaf blowers need to be electric.

      And they’re quiet.

      Score!

        Yeah, I think there was some regulation passed to ban the sale of gas powered leaf blowers within my city or county, but anyone who already owns one is still allowed to use them, and anyone who wants to buy a new one just has to travel to the neighboring city/county to buy one. I’m not sure what happened with that, but I can tell you for sure that the city parks department is definitely still using gas powered leaf blowers.
