-2- <br /> There are many new residential areas being built and many more <br /> proposed . We are a small community on 5, 10, and 20 acre <br /> parcels . Many of us have horses and small livestock . Have you <br /> ever seen what a horse looks like after it has run through a <br /> fence while being chased by a loose dog. The potential for <br /> disaster is enormous for our livestock . Also, Mr . Silveira <br /> resides on only 20 acres even though he is zoned ag-40 . (see <br /> attached county map) <br /> Second, the residents at 15710 operate a licensed daycare next to <br /> where the kennel is proposed . What of the safety for those <br /> children when one or several of those dogs get loose . There is <br /> no guarantee that will never happen . Especially since Mr . <br /> Silveira is a fireman and won't be there every four out of eight <br /> days . The dogs will continuously bark at the kids and the other <br /> dogs at night. Imagine 75 dogs barking in the middle of the <br /> night; will you give us your home phone so you can hear it? And <br /> despite his saying his dogs are debarked, is he willing to have <br /> all of his dogs debarked? <br /> Third, who is going to take care of the dogs while Mr . Silveira <br /> is not there . After all; he will be gone four out of eight days . <br /> Surely we can ' t hope his girlfriend will be there forever, can <br /> we? <br /> And what about the other kennel at 15650; the county made them <br /> put up 6 ' wood fencing all the way around their kennel and a <br /> bathroom and parking for clients . The only fencing you are <br /> requiring Mr . Silveira to put up is wire . We would hope that all <br /> the kennels would be regulated by the same format . <br /> And finally, many of the things that the county said it would <br /> enforce governing the kennels never happened . Which leads us to <br /> believe that once Mr . Silveira gets his permit, he will do what <br /> ever he wants and those of us who live here will again be the <br /> victims of a careless and uncaring county bureaucracy. The man <br /> wants to build a building 16 'by 100 ' and add another building <br /> 141by 38 ' to house 25 dogs? Who are we kidding? <br /> Thank-you for your consideration, <br /> Mr . and Mrs W.G. Crocker and the <br /> undersinged <br />
