May, 11. ZUUU d:46AM tscalon building & Hanning No. 2961 F. 1 <br /> S J C Community Development <br /> Development Services Division <br /> Attn: Jason Jones <br /> Application.Number PA-0800145 (UP) <br /> Recommendations: <br /> I. The drawing submitted with the application will show an access road(driveway)for the project. <br /> 2. Access to the project will be allowed from Lone Tree Road only. <br /> 3. The proposed project site location should be moved several hundred feet closer to the <br /> residents/owners of the property where the noise,odor,deliveries, clean-up of pigeon waste, <br /> disposal of dead birds and other activities associated with such an operation can be closely <br /> supervised. <br /> 4. This facility will be inspected for cleanliness on a regular(quarterly)basis (since squab will be <br /> raised for human consumption) and to keep the birds treated for and free of disease as much as <br /> possible. <br /> Comments: <br /> The residents that live on Buerer Lane pay for and provide the labor and materials (gravel etc.)that is <br /> necessary for the upkeep of the road that is not maintained by the County. This is a one car lane and <br /> increased traffic would cause unfair costs, labor and inconvenience to Buerer Lane residents. <br /> It is our understanding that a portion of the Lone Tree Creek has been designated as a wild life preserve,the <br /> close proximity of the project and the diseases that pigeons carry (canker,which is deadly to wild birds <br /> among other diseases) cause concern to our community. pMV-1, an agent that is very closely related to the <br /> virus that causes Newcastle disease in chickens can be spread by infected pigeons. <br /> Canadian Geese and Great Egret use Lome Tree Greek as a stop over as part of their migration,killdeer, <br /> ducks,pheasants,hawks, owls and other birds nest along Lone Tree Creek,and yes we do want to protect <br /> their existence as much as we can. <br /> Histoplasmosis is a disease caused by a fungus,which grows in pigeon droppings. Clean-up of pigeon <br /> droppings may cause some of the fungus to be released into the air. Protecting the health of those who <br /> reside in our community is important. <br /> Sincerely <br /> Carol Norris <br /> 26638 Buerer Ln. <br /> Cecilia Khan <br /> 26650 <br /> Buerer Ln. <br />
