TO AMEND TITLE 7 OF THE BLOOMINGTON MUNICIPAL CODE ENTITLED “ANIMALS” Re: To Amend Provisions Regarding the Permitting of Small Flocks of Chickens in Certain Residential Districts

This ordinance is sponsored by Councilmembers Piedmont-Smith and Rollo. It follows an uneventful five-year history of a general prohibition against harboring small flocks of chickens in certain residential districts except through waiver by adjacent neighbors and would now allow this activity by permit and without a waiver. It also waives the $25 annual fee for the permit. Lastly, it brings relevant citations to Title 20 of the Bloomington Municipal Code up to date with the repeal and re-enactment of that title in 2006.
