PLYMOUTH — The Marshall County Commissioners unanimously rejected the idea of creating a noise ordinance for the county
at their meeting on Monday.
Phillip Smith had come before the Commissioners with a proposal outlining a possible ordinance to be considered by the county based on Indiana Code that would prohibit loud, unnecessary, or unusual noise that causes unreasonable discomfort to residents.
Smith said his proposal stemmed from a personal issue with a neighbor, and despite several neighbors expressing concern, the issue has continued.
Monday, President of the Commissioners Stan Klotz broached the issue of whether the county should pursue such an ordinance.
Commissioner Jesse Bohannon pointed to feedback he had received.
Commissioner Adam Faulstich also saw difficulties with continuing consideration of the ordinance.
