Neighbors of the United Order of South Dakota, the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints' Pringle-area compound, are asking the FLDS to address late night/early morning construction noise complaints or they will seek a county noise ordinance from the Custer County Commission.
In response to those complaints, county planning director David Green developed an ordinance to address night-time construction noise, but there is nothing pending with the commission. Instead, county officials met with FLDS leaders and told them to address the issue with their neighbors to avoid the enactment of a "burdensome ordinance."
Green said the commission and neighbors are waiting to hear back from the FLDS on how they plan to address the noise complaints.
