8/7/2008I live here too. It's funny because it's like "oh, Chandler is nice except for the lung disease and skin cancer". I've lived here for 35 years and I know Chandler has passed it's prime and you'll see evidence of this by the fact that the City can't keep up with it's neighborhoods any more. They used to be great about fixing up the neighborhoods, but now they can't even keep on top of the abandoned homes that are going back to tumbleweeds.

8/7/2008If you want to live in a city with a huge commercial experimental-drug testing facility, Chandler is the place for you! Opening 2009 this facility is hired by drug companies to test their experimental drugs on rodents and dogs (beagles). They will also be importing wild primates, testing the drugs on them and then killing them. They are also permitted to take animals from animal shelters.
There is no public information about the disposal of the animal carcasses except they they will be incinerated. The City Council has no plan for testing our groundwater once these experimental drugs get into the water table. Before this company was brought here by our City Council, Chandler was the best city in the state. It's a great city except for the blatant disregard for public health by the Council.
I'm not a animal-rights nut or anything, I just can't believe this has happened to the town I've lived in since 1974. I hope to be moved out of here before this facility opens in 2009. You can learn more at protectchandler(dot)org
