I love having chickens. My children enjoy taking care of them. I almost always have extra eggs my neighbors enjoy. Thank you for taking action so more people can have access to clean fresh eggs and poultry.
I am four people having chickens on their property as long as they go through a training and realize this is a financial and long-term commitment. These are living beings and must be cared for properly. Therefore they need daily care, a place to live where they are warm in the winter and shade provided in the summer, fresh, clean water daily, chicken feed daily, a place for them to roost at night that is protected from predators, the chicken pen and chicken house must be cleaned out on a regular basis. There must be a place provided for them to take their dry baths in dirt that will help keep them healthy. So, if people are committed to educating themselves, committed to the financial expense of caring for chickens, willing to make sure that everything that is needed is provided for these live animals, then I support this. But, humans are fickle and just like during the pandemic when everybody adopted a pet and then they decided they didn't have time for them so they gave them to shelters. That behavior from humans is not okay. So think before you make a commitment to keeping live chickens on your property.
HOA’s have too much deciding powers that can negatively affect homeowners. Their ability to source their own food on their own land is one of these things. Homeowners should be able to have their own garden, chickens for eggs, etc. to help sustain themselves.
I ended up with a surprise bill for something that seemed relatively routine. I asked them for an itemized bill and got what looked like the same exact vague information as the first bill with no actual specifics. I paid the bill off but haven't been back to a doctor since. If I ever have to see a doctor, I will be avoiding UCHealth. If that isn't possible, I would gladly leave Colorado.
I have two children on the spectrum and I am terrified that she would be harmed because she is aggressive. Kids who are aggressive on the spectrum tend to be more abused than those who are not .
I am raising a 3 year old grandson who is autistic,he attends 2 schools dayly, he is preverbal, I would love to see cameras to monitor his well being,also in the bathrooms for toddlers!
As a student, I believe switching to a 4-day school week would make a huge positive difference in my life. I would feel a lot less stressed because I’d have more time to relax and recharge. With an extra day off, I could catch up on assignments, study at my own pace, and actually understand the material better instead of rushing through it. It would also give me more free time to explore my interests, be creative, and even get involved in hobbies or community activities. Having that extra day would help me balance school and life in a healthier way, making me feel more motivated and refreshed each week.
The potential impacts on traffic, wildlife, and public lands are significant and could negatively affect our community’s quality of life. Additionally, the lack of sufficient workforce housing in this development undermines its potential benefits. It’s crucial that any proposed land use change aligns with the character and needs of our community while preserving the natural beauty and resources we all value. I hope the decision-makers take these valid concerns into account and prioritize sustainable, community-centered development
Making Election Day a federal holiday in the United States could increase voter turnout by providing citizens with more time to vote without work conflicts. In the 2020 election, 13.1% of registered voters who didn’t vote cited being too busy or having scheduling conflicts as the reason. Additionally, such a holiday would celebrate democracy, turning voting into a nationwide event. This approach aligns with practices in other countries and has significant public support; a Pew Research Center survey found that nearly 80% of Democrats and nearly 70% of Republicans favor making Election Day a federal holiday.
Many teenagers, like myself, are politically educated and want a say in who rules our country. If the voting age is lowered, it means that younger voices would be heard, it would promote more voting, and possibly encourage more teens to educate themselves politically to prepare. Sixteen year olds should be allowed to vote and stand for what they believe in.
