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.
Aubrey supported: Permit Property Owners to Keep Chickens Despite HOA RulesI 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.
Amber supported: Permit Property Owners to Keep Chickens Despite HOA RulesHOA’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.
Joe supported: Permit Property Owners to Keep Chickens Despite HOA RulesI live immediately above the park. It is outrageous that as someone who could have effects of this herbicide that I was not notified or given a voice to discuss the issues prior to spraying.
Randi supported: Open Letter Against Recent Herbicide Use at Alum Rock ParkIt is absolutely premature and unnecessary to remove, let alone kill, this young beaver from its natural habitat. Please do your research on how beneficial beavers are to the ecosystem and how much they contribute to the biodiversity of the lake, therefore beautifying it rather than harming it. Perhaps Wally can even be a new "mascot" of Kingstowne lake. Educational signs can be added along the trail so that residents can learn more about these fascinating animals, why they need our protection, and how to peacefully coexist with them. It would be absolutely amazing to see a segment on the Kingstonian as well. Children can make drawings of Wally and enter into a contest! Thank you for reconsidering.
Sarah supported: Save Wally -- The Soul of Kingstowne LakeWe should not see wildlife as a threat but rather a neighbor we cohabitate with. These animals are not looking to make our lives more difficult or challenging we should be blessed to be able to live amongst such beautiful creatures. This is such a shame that they are allowed to harm an animal this way.
Megan supported: Save Wally -- The Soul of Kingstowne LakeI think KROC wanting to kill Wally is disgusting. He isn't causing damage. I love seeing the wildlife on my walks and I'd love to spot this little guy from a distance one day. KROC instead of trying to kill the wildlife why don't you maintain the area we pay you for. He will do more for the environment then you probably will ever do.
We need nature and it's creature's. There is so much beauty in it.
Let Wally be.
Lisa supported: Save Wally -- The Soul of Kingstowne LakeMy family always looks for Wally when walking around the lake. Not looking forward to explaining to my daughter that the HOA hired someone to kill him because he's a "nuisance". This money to kill an innocent animal who's only "problem" is existing in its natural habitat must have come from the funds unallocated from the mass surveillance systems KROC wanted to install in the neighborhoods. Every KROC member who decided this is the best course of action should be ashamed of themselves.
Tyler supported: Save Wally -- The Soul of Kingstowne LakeThere is no reason why any innocent wildlife needs to have its life ended. there are simple ways to manage water flow including blocking the needed water flow areas so the beaver can build somewhere else in the pond. They are attracted to the sound of running water..if you have a speaker with the sound of water flow near a beaver they will start to build a dam on the speaker (a beaver rehab person showed this)..so if you want wally to be on a part of the dam not blocking water flow to surrounding overflow from storm water,,,than create a little water flow with a tube that will reroute water (not hard for landscapers to design),... and he can reside there peacefully..Please leave that little guy alone and leave his home alone..learn to live peacefully with the Creator's creatures ..use your thinking instead of quickly moving to destruction..there is always another way.. learn about the beaver's natural ways,.. get a wildlife expert to help a landscaper to design a place for him..and possibly to manage any overabundance of growth from the dam..it's not expensive to manage..and work around it ..I pray you all do the right thing.. I shop at Kingstowne weekly and I enjoy going around to see Wally and showing him to my family as well..--don't do this to the kids that adore him as well..it's not right..it's just the wrong choice.
