The speaker facing the street is the one causing the complaints. Everything else on the property reads fine. So the work is narrow: keep your Sonos system exactly as it is, and only touch the outdoor speakers.
Four ways to take it, from do-it-yourself up to fully dialed in. Every one runs on the Sonos Amp you already have, and you keep controlling it from the same app.
Short version: if budget is the driver, start at the top of the list. If making the complaints stop is the driver, the last option is built for exactly that.

Best · built around the complaint
Two zones, run quiet
$7,500installed
Two pairs of upgraded outdoor speakers and a second Sonos Amp, so the corner nearest your neighbor becomes its own zone you can keep turned down while the inner patio carries the level. We tune it on-site. This is the version that answers the complaint, not just the coverage.
Includes Two upgraded outdoor speaker pairs · second Sonos Amp for zoning · aimable mounts · weatherproof outdoor wiring · install, zoning, on-site tuning, and test.
For events — no spend
The free moves still hold. Point the speakers at your pop-up tents when you set up; the fabric absorbs instead of reflecting. Keep the box truck on the open side as a wall. Both do real acoustic work at no cost, on top of whichever option above you choose.
What's in, what's not
Included
Hardware, mounting, weatherproof outdoor wiring, aiming, and an on-site test. The Best option adds zoning and tuning.
Not included
Electrical or trenching beyond the speaker runs, city permits, and the noise-direction call to the city. That call is yours, and it's the thing that sharpens where we aim.
Next step
One thing moves this forward: a direction on the complaints from the city or police. With that, we lock the aim and the final number, then put the install on the calendar.
