I am suggesting neither.
I just find it ironic that a Christian church can't toll its bells while Muslim mosques in parts of Michigan can broadcast their calls to prayer loud and clear.
We're making the assumption that this proposed mosque in Katy, TX would also be audibly broadcasting a call to prayer throughout the surrounding neighborhood.
Granted, restricting the maximum number of decibels and the time of the noise-making is acceptable...but I just find it ironic. In most Muslim countries, this would be a non-issue, because the church wouldn't even be allowed to exist.

I happen to live in the City of Katy and this proposed property is much closer in toward Houston and at the edge of a major flood reservoir. I'm pretty sure it's unincorporated Harris County. It's in the Katy school district so I'm assuming that's why it gets the Katy title. Mr. Baker's farm appears to be the one remaining rural area surrounded by subdivisions. The neighborhood is extremely high ended so it will be interesting to see how this all plays out. Mr. Baker appears to be resourceful, to say the least. At least it's NIMBY. Heeeheee
