HomeMy WebLinkAbout2017-06 Euless TodayJune2017 Dear Citizens, Happy Summer everyone! June is such a great time of year with a lot of fun outdoor activities for everyone. Between the concerts, movies in the park, swimming pools, splash pads and our beautiful parks, there's something for everyone. We have lots of wonderful indoor activities too. The Dr Pepper StarCenter is the ultimate place for cooling off during the summer. Not to mention the Library and Rec Center. I strongly encourage you to attend our June Town Hall meeting where we will discuss upcoming potential projects and budget priorities. It's your chance to ask questions and get clarification if you don't understand something. We love to hear from our residents! Did you know...? You find more information about the HEB Reads!

An- imal Services will then mail a second notice letter to the pet owner, explaining that further violations will result in a citation being issued or complaint filed in the Euless Municipal Court resulting in a penalty up to $500. If there is no resolution following notification of the second complaint, a resident can complete the Barking/Noise Incident Report and the Barking/Noise Incident Log which will be used as documentation for the City of Euless Prosecutor to review. The Prosecutor may file charges against the animal owner if there is sufficient evidence, and you may be asked to testify in Municipal Court if the owner contests the charge. We hope no one will have to follow through with all of these steps, but services are available if needed. The City of Euless encourages neighbors to communicate directly with one another and to try to work together to resolve community chal- lenges. How to Deal with Excessive Barking (and other noisy animals) Many of us adore our furry friends just as family, and they can be a great addition to our lives. We may love them so much that we are sometimes oblivious to the affect they can have on those around us. Barking is a natural dog behavior and most people want their dogs to bark to alert them to potential dan- ger. However, owners who permit their dogs to bark excessively are permitting a public nuisance to occur and can be issued a cita- tion. Part of responsible dog ownership is en- suring that your dog is not a nuisance to others. Residents may submit complaints about bark- ing/noisy animal around their property. The City will contact the pet owner and will seek voluntary compliance. If the problem per- sists, additional complaints may be filed which may result in a citation being issued. We encourage neighbors to speak directly about the situation before filing a complaint. They may be completely unaware of the noise, and most pet owners want to be good neighbors. Work cooperatively with one an- other to look for patterns that may help you determine the cause of the excessive barking. If the barking persists after speaking with your neighbor, you may call 817-685-1592 or fill out an online complaint form by visiting www.eulesstx.gov website and clicking on the Access Euless link on the home page. You will need to provide the address and description of the animal, plus any other pertinent de- tails. This is when Animal Services will at- tempt to contact the pet owner and advise the owner of the complaint, and discuss the situ- ation. Animal Services will also mail you the complaint procedures, the Barking/Noise In- cident Report and the Barking/Noise Incident Log. et-june2017.qxp 4/27/2017 3:25 PM Page 3 Backyard Composting June 29, 7 p.m. Euless City Hall, 201 N. Ector Dr. Each year, nearly four million tons of yard trimmings in the form of leaves, grass, tree limbs, weeds and other organic debris are thrown away in Texas. That amounts to almost 20 percent of all trash in municipal landfills. Backyard composting helps us use natural techniques to decompose organic material and return them to the soil. Composting can also help you save money on expensive fertilizers and pesticides, which also helps to keep those chemicals from washing into our lakes, streams and underground water. About the speaker: Lori De La Cruz, ABC, specializes in sustainability education and project planning & implementation. She is a SWANA-certified Recycling Systems Manager, a Master Composter and Master Composter Trainer. Her specialties include environmental and sustainability education and sustainability issues as they relate to American history.
