From the article you linked: "60 decibels – which is about the same noise level of a dishwasher."

Basically, you seem to be grossly distorting what the article says.
The trouble started back in August when the small evangelical congregation announced plans to expand its existing sanctuary – located within a subdivision.
However, that meant the church had to temporarily relocate its two Sunday morning worship services to an enclosed outdoor tent. The church applied for, and was granted a permit to erect the structure.
On Aug. 9, a neighbor called authorities to complain about the noise levels.
On Aug. 18, the church was told by the sheriff’s office that any sounds before 8:50 a.m. had to be kept below 60 decibels. They also told the church they could not set up for the Sunday service until after 8:50 a.m.
Also, at 51 seconds into the embedded video, there's a still shot of a band playing in that tent.
While the 60 decibel limit is indeed quieter than necessary,
that doesn't tell us anything about how loud they were actually being when the neighbors repeatedly called the cops over noise disturbances.
Either the neighbors have a vendetta OR these people were being way louder than 60 decibels with their preaching and their band performances. But you simply cannot claim to know how loud or quiet they were actually being.
