32 Du p lessis, Angela From: Sent: To: Cc: Subject: Heidman, Stanley (SNB) [Stanley.Heidman@snb.ca] Monday, April 09, :24 PM PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT stan.heidman@gmail.com Neighbourhood notification PR: 30/18 I received a neighbourhood notification file number PR: 30/18 proposing permission to have backyard hens at 38 Rebecca Dr. I realize that the proposal complies with the provisions for keeping hens in a R-2 zone but would like to express the concerns we have that keeping hens with neighbours so close might cause smell and noise issues.
