I got involved with this same situation except that it involved Waverunners. Our vacation spot on the Gulf of Mexico has changed from a quite little village with sparsely populated beaches to a tourist trap with loud stinking jet skies everywhere, operated by careless kids out for a thrill. Our group approached the city government and the chamber of commerce and were told that banning them would "infringe on someone's rights". As a consolation though, we were assured that in a few years the two cycles would phase out and the four cycles would take over.
I feel much better knowing that I will be killed by a quieter, cleaner smelling water rocket piloted by a punk trying to impress his girlfriend.
