According to your city's ordinances if you are not zoned "rural" your are not allowed to keep chickens.

Some cities (including mine) do not consider chickens under the clause of "livestock" but as "poultry" and have a separate ordinance pertaining to poultry.

You are correct. However Santa Rosa's definition of livestock is :  Livestock means any animal customarily kept by humans for the purpose of providing food, clothing or work, including, but not limited to: equine, bovine, ovine, caprine, porcine and fowl, but excluding bees.

Right, I don't know if Santa Rosa is this way... I hadn't looked that far...

These may help you investigate. Good luck.
