Planning Commission Page 7 <br /> June 23,2020 <br /> ----------------------------- <br /> Bradley Nelson - 12282 195"'Lane NW—stated he has lived in the neighborhood <br /> his entire life and walks his dogs through the neighborhood to get to Woodland <br /> Trails and he never knew the Schwartz's had dogs. He stated they are the sweetest <br /> dogs ever once he met them,well trained,and love skateboards, and never once were <br /> aggressive towards him. He stated the micro bullies are small dogs but muscular. <br /> Valeria Reyes— 12457 194"'Lane - stated the two rottweilers,Loki and Coco,have <br /> lived with them for six years and will not be leaving their home. She stated earlier <br /> this year they added Louie and Chanel,micro bullies. She stated Coco is her therapy <br /> dog and none of their dogs are vicious or seemingly dangerous to anyone who <br /> knows their dogs. She stated they have only had issues with the Sivoldas and wished <br /> they would make efforts to get to know their dogs. She stated her family has made <br /> changes to address the concerns with the dogs as she.felt an one has a right to live <br /> and feel comfortable in their own home. <br /> There being no one else present to speak, arson-Vito cl ed the public <br /> hearing. <br /> Chair Larson-Vito stated based upon what she was heard this evening,wondered if <br /> they should add a condition of the invisible fence being operated on the property. <br /> Commissioner Jordan asked if a real fence could belxe uired on the one side. <br /> Mr. Leeseberg stated any fencing condition could be recommended. <br /> 41 <br /> Commissioner Jo nson afed by reducing the number of animals by one will not <br /> change the current issues occurring between the Silvoda's and the Schwartz's. <br /> Commissioner Jordan was thinking if there was a fence the dogs could not see <br /> through,perhaps the neighbor could feel comfortable in her yard. <br /> Mr. Schwartz stated a privacy fence would take away from the natural openness <br /> which is why they chose the invisible fence. <br /> Mr. Sivolda stated they were told the original proposed fence by the Schwartz's was a <br /> chain link fence and they were opposed to that. <br /> Mr. Schwartz indicated they have evidence to support they were approved by the <br /> Lafayette Woods HOA to install a buff-tech privacy fence but instead put in the <br /> invisible fence to keep the look of the back yards natural. He stated if he were <br /> required to install a physical fence,he would have to install it for the entire yard as <br /> just one side would look odd and would ruin the natural look of the back yard. He <br /> stated the variable that does not change in this equation is there will still be two <br /> rottweilers living at his home,barking, and snarling at Mrs. Sivolda, and she calls the <br /> police to complain about his dogs. <br /> 111`41AWRE <br /> . . .. . . . . . . <br />
