'We want to be good neighbors': Naperville group offering chicken therapy facing smell, noise complaints from neighbors
In the face of noise and smell complaints from neighbors, a Naperville nonprofit group focusing on chicken therapy for adults with special needs is trying to keep its residential operation going.
"We as neighbors have really put up with this over these years," said Barb Buzzelli, who lives just southeast of the property."It's continuously hearing the noise of the chickens, the people that constantly come through the backyard." Also included is an increase in the allowed number of chickens from eight to 12 -- the Montalbanos currently have 17 chickens -- and an agreement to add 6-foot-tall privacy fencing around the backyard.
Officials from the city's transportation, engineering and development department said numerous permit requests on the property have been rejected since fall 2021.
