Resident urges council to act on proposed ordinance after neighbor's roosters 'unbearable'
Summary
A Cutoff resident told the Lafourche Parish Council that a neighbor's large flock of roosters creates persistent noise, odors and drainage-related health concerns, and asked the council to consider passing proposed Ordinance No. 11 that would address the situation.
Scarlett Danos, who identified herself as a Cutoff resident, asked the council to consider proposed Ordinance No. 11 after describing an adjacent property with an excessive number of roosters. "Some days, it's unbearable," Danos said, citing loud roosters, strong odors and standing water that she said raises health concerns for children playing outside and for an elderly couple who live about 20 feet from the flock.
Danos told the council her husband recorded video of the roosters and asked officials to review the proposed ordinance at the next meeting. Chair clarified that the measure is proposed and will be debated at the council's next session; no vote or formal council action occurred on the ordinance at this meeting.
