Mr. Bernheimer also agreed with the other council members; he added that they must consider the ramifications for everybody. He advised, he read Wilson’s proposal and answered multiple emails. But the emails in favor of chickens were a form copy, and the only difference is who signed it. The emails of those who opposed took the time to provide details of their opposition versus copying what someone else had given them. He also stated that he received emails apologizing for signing the petition before looking into the issue and requested him to vote against allowing chickens. Discussion in the community caused a lot of confusion, and he did not like how this issue was dealt with. But his decision would be reflected in his vote. The mayor read an email from Mr. Wolfer in opposition to the chicken ordinance so that residents knew is opinion but understood that he could not be considered in the vote as he was not present at the meeting. Ms. Thaman commented that this was a very hard decision, and it was not meant to be cold-hearted in any shape or form.

He advocated for a thoughtful approach to development, especially development that occurred on the east and west sides of I-75. “And if there’s not a plan, and if the residents who are adjacent to that are not in favor of it, there has to be a realistic view as to what’s going on,” Busse said.
