committing the violation. At any time after the first offense and warning that the dog owner fails to comply, the enforcing party may request removal of the dog from the property.

In the event of a second violation by the same dog and/or the same dog's owner, the dog and the dog's owner or representative shall be immediately evicted from the property, and the offending person in question shall be prohibited from the property for the following seven (7) consecutive calendar days. In the event of a third violation, the offending person in question shall be prohibited from the property for the following six (6) consecutive calendar months. 6. The proposed residential development is located in the vicinity of black bear habitat. Most bears do not cause damage where development has encroached into bear habitat. The key is that if a bear doesn't find food it will move on. Black bears are omnivorous and while they mostly eat vegetation, they will eat almost anything. They will eat human food, garbage, hummingbird nectar, bird seed, pet food, grease off a horneowner's backyard grill, suntan lotion, etc. Garbage generally provides the greatest attraction for bears to developments. Once a beaz has found an easily accessible, consistent food source, it will often overcome its wariness of people and visit the site regularly. This increases the chance of a bear-human encounter. After repeated use of the food source, the bear may even act aggressively toward humans, their pets, or unsuspecting residents in adjacent neighborhoods. When this happens and wildlife authorities are notified, the beaz is usually killed to protect human safety. a. The following measures aze appropriate to reduce potential bear problems at Granby Ranch: 7. There shall be no outside storage of any trash or garbage, no matter how briefly (e.g., overnight), at any residence, unless it is contained within individual or community bear-proof containers which meet North American Beaz Society, CDOW, or U.S. National Pazk Service specifications. 8. Prior to disposal, any refuse that might attract bears should be kept within a garage or storage/ maintenance building in a suitable receptacle with atight-fitting lid. Refuse should not be kept within detached sheds because these structures are more likely to be broken into by bears. 9. There shall be no dumps or underground disposal of refuse within the development. Buried garbage will attract bears. JANUARY 17, 2007 3 WILDLIFE-FINAL-2
