Weigh in: Out There | Norco
Share your thoughts on this story and this neighborhood.
1.
Also, why are people that havent lived here for longer than 7 years speed by happy trail riders on the trail? I always ride my horse and I've occurred more than well over ten times someone speed past me and my horse or my friends horse spookes. I know how to control my horse but some riders don't. How come speeders in noro don't get tickited?
2. My name is Taylor, I am resident of Norco form most of my life, I have 4 horses of my own and agree horse manure should be pick up from the stalls for the horses health reasons. But if anyone moves from another city to our horse town and complains about "oh there are too many flies","too much horse manure" Then dont move here or just live with that you moved to a horse town. Dont expect the cleanlyness of your old town to ours. We love our dirt, flies, and especally, our horses. Dont tell us to change just because you dont like the way we live in our town.
3. From July 1st 2008 CR&R in Riverside County is now charging an extra $29.00 per pick up on a 3 yard bin, $149.00if it has Manure in it because they say it is heavier than trash. Yet you can put any old heavy trash in a commercial bin. It's just a way to get more money who keep there places clean. They say the Board of Supervisors approved, great move Bob Buster Not !!, thanks for getting the county a rate higher thn any city so Norco will get clean and the rest of the county will now go to ?. Don't drink the water in Riverside and hold your nose. What a step back, let's recall or move.
4. Almost 7 yrs. ago I moved from Norco to a town of 28 people in central Idaho,because I saw this coming! People trying to faze out the horses and the FREEDOM that goes along with ownership of them. Politicians should not only stay OUT of Relgion.......But also OUT of peoples back yards ! ! ! This Land of the FREE......is very quickley becoming a thing of the PAST! Dont WE ALL want this COUNTRY to stay a FREE COUNTRY ? If NOT ........what are our Men and Women in the Armed forces fighting for ? ? ?
5. There seems to be more dictatorship in cities now. The next thing you know it will be illegal to eat in public.
6. It is obvious that some one is out to make some money off the people of NORCO. They should just be left alone to live there lifes.I went to my sister and brother n laws house and noticed waste management picks up there horse waste that they pay extra for, and I am sure they make money from this.Have them pay a portion for the production of energy.
7. Okay, I've been busy: I contacted Rutgers and asked about their studies on pathogens in horse manure, and they directed me to Dr. Atwil's studies conducted at UC Davis--in which it has been proven that horses do NOT carry pathogens in their manure in any significant amount (i.e., less than .01% I believe) and certainly not enough to impact groundwater or even surface water. Therefore, if the fines imposed on Norco were in response to pathogens in the watershed, it was misdirected at the equine community.
8. Enlarge the horse area to keep up with the manure and save it to produce energy.
9. As to Sr Tocino's comment about "quite enjoyment" - The term is "quiet enjoyment", not "quite enjoyment". There is a difference. And yes, the fine citizens of Norco absolutely do have the right to Quiet Enjoyment - they are taxpayers, and Norco is zoned for horses. There are much bigger issues to be had when referencing water runoff, i.e., oil, petroleum based products, gasoline spillage, road tar, cigarette butts, general litter, humans spitting (I see that a lot, talk about germs). The horses are what brings the charm to the city, and who the hell cares about the "smell from the I-15 freeway - you're just passing through anyway.
10. Hey how would I go about getting my hands on some of that Manure. I compost pile would love it. Armando, I hate to be the bearer of bad news but the working class neighborhoods are intruding on horse property, not the other way around.
