Notice:
Although the Mt. Lebanon Commissioners received educated quality advice about nonlethal deer management for Mt. Lebo earlier this year, at their June meeting, they chose to dismiss all of the nonlethal advice and only look at lethal ways they can kill deer and endanger our safety in the process. They will vote on the 2015/2016 deer kill plan on Tuesday night. Please plan to attend to give public comment. It's our lives and our town too, so please speak up and let them know it's not OK to endanger our community to protect their landscaping.

Remember Mt. Lebanon does not have a "deer problem" we only have people complaining that they do not want to see deer and that their plants are being eaten ... but their voices get heard because they make them heard and they do not care how it affects other people in the community. We do not have anymore deer in Mt. Lebanon than any other community in Western PA, nor do we have more deer impact issues, nor more vehicle accidents, we simply have more people who complain about seeing deer than in any other community and thus the Commission says we need to kill some.

It's our town, our lives and our neighborhoods too, so please speak up and let the Commission know it's not OK to endanger our community to protect landscaping.

Along with there being no safe place in our community to shoot deer with high powered rifles there's also no safe place within our community to shoot deer with a a cross bow and then to track their wounded bodies through our neighborhoods.

For all the deer killed, others from neighboring towns will filter in and thus we ultimately never reduce the number of deer and the people who complain now will continue to complain but the Commissioners can say they killed some deer ....

Thank you again for your attention to this grave matter.
