My town has an ordnance stating that chickens are not allowed to be raised / kept within city limits. Has anyone tried or succeeded in having a city ordnance amended or special exception given to allow chickens ? Would love to hear from anyone who has gone thru this. Good or bad.

I was not personally involved but a group got our ordinance changed a few years back.  It went from NONE to up to 6 hens may be kept in town no roosters allowed.  It also now outlines housing requirements, etc for the birds.

Do the next thing next. That's a pretty good rule. Read the tiny ad, that's a pretty good rule, too.
