Can the city please do something to address the growing geese issue at the Babson Reservoir. I would think that this being a public water supply that the issue of geese continuously releasing their rather large feces droppings all throughout this location would pose a potential health risk. I believe the city should research this issue to see if these geese are indeed creating a health issue to our community and its vital water supply or at the very least move these geese on from this location as well as other public spaces throughout the city such as all around the O’Maley School / Dr. Osman Rd. recreational ballfields and track. These are the locations where I walk my dog, as well as do other pet owners and these areas within the ballfields as well as around the perimeter are layered and covered with geese feces. Unfortunately, I have a dog which I can bring to the Gloucester Dogpark due to her not taking to other dogs there. I have attempted to walk my dog up at Stage Fort Park, however there are too many dog owners who do not abide by the city’s leash ordinance. I have notified both Gloucester Animal Control as well as the Gloucester Police only to not have any response nor action taken. Please help to address all these issues on all levels! Thank You for your anticipated cooperation with this matter.
