According to The Rundown (unofficial notes provided by the city) at the December 15th Council Meeting, the Commission directed staff to move forward on revisions to the City’s ordinance regarding chickens kept within the city limits. The current ordinance requires anyone seeking to harbor chickens to obtain consent of all their neighbors within 200 feet, a requirement that some residents have complained is arduous and unfair. City staff will bring back proposed changes at the Jan. 12 Commission meeting.
