Kaufman City wanting to shut down Dallas Crown
For years, residents of Kaufman, TX, have been dealing with the noise
and unbearable smell from the horse slaughter plant located behind their
residential neighborhood. In addition to several citations by the City
of Kaufman in regards to waste water rules, the horse slaughter plant
has been more than a nuisance.
After a city council hearing in June, where a courageous citizen Mr.
Eldridge asked the Mayor and the Council of the City of Kaufman to
finally put their foot down, the vote came in Monday, August 15, 2005.
The Kaufman City Council decided by unanimous vote that Dallas Crown is
out of compliance with their nonconforming use permit and has sent a
decision to the Board of Adjustments (Zoning Board) to terminate Dallas
Crown's permit.
When the permit is terminated, hundreds of horses will be safe.
Until then, horses continue to be slaughtered. Their pens are full as
they are now more eager than ever to slaughter what they can for profit
overseas.
