September 15: Urban Agriculture Meeting

 Jim Nash of the Zoning Revisions Committee is circulating the following invitation:

On September 15th at 7 PM, the Urban Agriculture Sub-committee of the Zoning Revisions Committee will be meeting with the public to discuss modifications and changes to current regulations around chickens and livestock. The meeting with be held in Hearing Room 18 on the second floor of City Hall.

Our agenda is very brief but likely require further discussion and another meeting.


  1. First and foremost, backyard chickens. We would like to discuss increasing the number of allowable birds and explore ways to modify regulations around chickens in urban settings.


  2. If the chicken issues can be adequately resolved, we would like to begin discussion around other livestock. Goats have specifically been mentioned.
PLEASE USE THE BACK DOOR OF CITY HALL! The front door will be locked.
