-1- <br />Mr. 'Mayor and City Council: <br />I'm here to support the goose round -up program that was started <br />last year. <br />In our neighborhood, it is an on going problem with having to <br />clean sidewalks and our driveway every day. Many times, the <br />traffic on Little Canada Rd. has to come to a halt because the <br />geese being in the street. They, often times, are crossing the <br />street thru the Barrieau and Kimmes property to get to the water <br />works. <br />In our yard, they are pulling up our grass by the roots and as <br />soon as we plant more grass seed, they are right there to eat <br />it. <br />Two weeks ago, we babysat our 4 year old granddaughter. We <br />took her to the play area at St. John's School, by the time we <br />got there, our shoes were full of goose droppings. We took a <br />different route home and she happened to fall and got up full <br />of goose droppings on her legs, knees and elbows. <br />Shortly after that we were: notified of a petition to save the <br />geese, so we started a petition to keep the goose round -up in <br />action. <br />I went to see the priest at St. John's Church, and he was very <br />happy to sign our petition. <br />I went to see my neighbors and they are in the same situation <br />we are in and were happy to sign our petition. <br />-2- After looking across our pond, we realized that residents on <br />that side have long back yards and their houses sit on top of <br />a hill and the geese never get up there.. <br />Page 21 <br />
