They said they're going to replace the fans by the end of 2024. Are they allowed to operate in the meantime? They should absolutely be force to shut the mine down until they've fixed the issue.
Former Oath Keeper police chief says best he can do is keep fining them $500 for noise pollution as often as possible, supposedly there's no legal way to force stop the source of the noise complaint, and Texas counties can't pass their own ordinances, only cities can. It also says someone is exploring if they can get the installation declared a public nuisance or something along those lines to open more legal avenues.
I feel that once old people start dying of stress and children are getting sleep deprivation torture while bleeding from their ears, more drastic options should have been on the table down at militia central, but I guess they have other priorities and/or know which side their bread is buttered.
If the price of the breaking the law is a fine, etc
They've also contested all fines and haven't paid a dime of the ~18.000$ total so far, while probably paying several times that in lawyer's fees.
Maybe this means that while 500$ is peanuts to them having the repeat offense in the books probably isn't good in the long run, but I'm not a texan lawyer.
Yeah of course they hired a lawyer and are going to court over a 18k fine while they make millions. Costing everybody even more money. I hope one of the retirees is a vet who has experience with mortars.
