“We thought it was a joke, we didn’t believe it, but it’s very real. We walk on our heads. » These inhabitants of Ménil-Hubert-sur-Orne (Orne) are angry. They have just learned that a poultry farm is going to set up in the heart of their village and worry about possible abuses.
“I will have a beautiful view of the livestock from my balcony,” says a concerned resident.

“We don’t want to meet again amidst the nuisance“, assures Marie- Pitrou, first neighbor of the future breeding farm. “We are not against it, but far from homes, not in the middle of the village. » According to her, “there was never any consultation. »

From her garden, she sees the progress of the project and has a front row seat to observe the activity. “The land was purchased a few months ago, and the work has already started,” says the person concerned.

To demonstrate their discontent, the group of residents launched a petition : “we already have around fifty signatories, and it’s not over. »

After the town planning certificate, validated with the agreement of the elected official, the building permit was approved. “The municipality has no say, and fortunately. I don't have to object“, says the mayor. “I would have preferred buildings, but it’s a great project with active young people. »
