Box 1115 <br />La Porte, Texas 77571 <br />Dear Mr. Herrera: <br />RE'C~1 ~D <br />rQ" ' ` 4 1994 <br />C1TY N1gNgGERS <br />_ OFFICE <br />This letter is to urge your support in voting "No" to modify the <br />existing city ordinance to allow pot bellied pigs as house pets. <br />We have one of these "pets" in our neighborhood and it is not <br />welcome in my yard. This pig is not cute and cuddly as the name <br />• implies; it weighs in the range of 100 lbs. and makes lots of <br />noise when it is encouraged to leave. The only reason it is in <br />my yard isind andetheeowner haslneversoffereddtoncleanfupethis <br />leaves beh <br />_ excrement. ~ ~ _. <br />I am happy to inform you that the owner has put up a larger fence <br />than was previously in her backyard to keep this animal in. It <br />is my assumption she learned that an 18" fence did not keep this <br />barnyard animal inside. <br />*ae have leash la*.as i n ou.r city for dogs and most responsible <br />citizens abide by them. 'The owner of this creature willingly <br />lets the pig have free reign over the neighborhood to relieve <br />itself and the gig is often seen out roaming in the neighborhood <br />when the owner is at work. Most people don't report it to animal <br />control because they won't do anything and we have the attitude <br />of "so what if the pig is harmed". <br />Please vote "NO" to modifying the pet ordinance. <br />Respectfu~jlly, . <br />/ll~?~J <br />oeena Davis <br />• <br />
