ABERDEEN, S.D.(Aberdeen American News)- Aberdeen City Councilwoman Tiffany Langer has formally denied allegations that she ever changed her residency from Aberdeen to Fargo, N.D.

A civil complaint was filed May 24 by David and Julie Shultis seeking a writ of prohibition. The complaint asserts that Langer moved from Aberdeen to Fargo and that she no longer qualifies to sit on the city council.

Langer was elected to the city council on June 2, 2020, and has represented the Southeast District since July 1, 2020.

The lawsuit was not only filed against Langer, but the entire city council. Langer and the balance of the city council filed responses in recent days. Both seek dismissal of the case, deny that Dave and Julie Shultis have legal standing in the civil lawsuit and deny that Langer’s residency ever changed.
