  • PUBLIC COMMENT

 

George Clark, of Terry Road, appeared before council with information he had gathered from various localities in West Virginia regarding leash laws and pro and cons stemming from them.  Mr. Clark stated that on the pro side, it was safer for the dogs as they were not running lose and therefore could not get run over by cars.  On the con side, he also noted that if you have to tie the dog up, there will be problems with the grass not growing where the dog is tied.  Furthermore there is the potential that if the dog gets lose with a chain or leash around its neck, there is the potential for the dog hanging itself.  Mr. Clark went on to say that dogs that are tied up run a greater risk of getting skin diseases from the dirt and from their bedding if it’s not changed often enough.  He added that children will still play with the dog and said that there were documented cases of the children contracting skin diseases as well from that association with the dog.  Mr. Clark said that the number one problem, he found, in doing his research was that when the dogs were tied up they made a lot of noise.

 

Mr. Ken Silby, of Lynchburg Avenue, spoke to council telling them that there were still dogs that were running loose and getting on his property.  Mr. Silby did add that Mr. Clark had been doing his part to try to control his dog and keep it from coming on Mr. Silby’s property.  Mr. Silby added that he still would encourage the town to consider some type of containment law for dogs within the town limits.

 

James Smith, an employee of the Town of Brookneal, requested that council keep the employees in the shop better informed of what was going on noting that they never received any information and said that he was still wondering if the town council was planning on doing anything for them.

 

  • PUBLIC WORKS REPORT

  • ITEMS FROM TOWN COUNCIL

 

Council member, Tracy Meisenbach, had some concerns about an issue involving her property and a resident that happened about two years ago stating that the incident had affected her quite adversely.  It was printed in the paper which is on the internet and the story had been used in such a manner as to get an application that she put in for a judging card to be turned down.  Ms. Meisenbach stated that this had cost her a great deal of income.  Furthermore, Ms. Meisenbach stated, that this opened the door for other applications that she might submit to other equine organizations to be turned down based on how the story was worded and the fact that there was no rebuttal in the story.    Ms. Meisenbach went on to say that she had spoken with Mr. Gillespie about this and he kind of issued a statement on it in 2004.  He had promised to write her a letter but due to some miscommunication a letter was never written.  Ms. Meisenbach stated that Mike Crews, Interim Town Manager, had now written a letter outlining the town code that gave her the right to ask people not to be on her property.    Ms. Meisenbach stated that at this time she would consider the matter closed since she did have the letter that she could send in with future applications.  She did, however, wish to urge all caution in how the council treats these matters adding that the way it was handled had come back to hurt her business greatly.
