My old city banned chickens, but everybody knew there were some around. Heck, this one family near me had one that was an escape artist and I’d see it every week or three down by the street, by the mailbox, pecking away.
We shortly thereafter reversed that earlier council, and made them legal with conditions. I think no more than 6 hens, roosters not allowed, and some setback limitations on where the coops could be.
I am so grateful for our HOA.
All animals allowed, as long as it’s not a commercial/breeding enterprise.
My neighbors don’t have animals but enjoy the benefits of free eggs, goat cheese and goat’s milk soap. We do have a rooster but I’ve checked and no one minds the crowing.
Other neighbors have horses, donkeys and cows.
We made sure these things would not be an issue before we moved into this neighborhood.
