Although I did not specifically see the issue <br /> of having chickens in Centerville on the agenda, I would like to make my opinion known. <br /> My husband and I live in the Chauncey Barett Gardens at 7022 Centerville Rd. We rent and have <br /> lived there for approximately 2 1/2 years. <br /> Myself and others have had problems with constant barking of a dog, the owner being the people <br /> wanting the chickens. It has been so bad that we have called Centenial Police, who have gone out there <br /> to talk to them. The barking may subside for a day or so, then resumes. I'm talking about barking that <br /> can last up to an hour any time of day, any season, and windows open or closed. <br /> I work in a school with over 900 children and usually can block out noises but when I come home <br /> ready to relax, or on a weekend this has been quite a nuisance. Also, it is quite rude of a neighbor who <br /> knows there have been many complaints. <br /> I will admit not calling the police, which was suggested we do, as much as I should have. It didn't <br /> seem to be the solution to the problem and frankly I gave up. I cannot officially speak for other <br /> residents at Chaucey, but I know they feel the same. <br /> However, when I recently read the request to add chickens to that residence, I became very <br /> annoyed. I can't imagine the dog being less quiet with chickens and the animals they will attract. <br /> Neither my husband nor I can attend this meeting, but hope you will consider these concerns when <br /> making your decision. And I have lived next to someone who had chickens in the past, without <br /> problems. There was not a barking dog involved and despite the list of myths, there were more wild <br /> animals around. <br /> Thanks for your time, <br /> Jeanne Mueller 651 - 253 -6481 <br /> This email has been scanned by the Symantec Email Security.cloud service. <br /> For more information please visit htip: / /www.symanteccloud.com <br /> 1 <br />
