Crowing
I support your attempt to try to get roosters in. In truth, they are no noisier than dogs, maxing out at the same level (~90db) and at least where I am, the roosters crow a lot less than dogs bark. That's a point you can bring up if you want to try, as well as suggesting stipulations such as an insulated coop or a baffle wall/fence/hedge if you have a rooster, and a minimum hen to rooster ratio (most sources suggest 10 to 1), and only one rooster per lot. All of these things will reduce crowing and/or its tendency to annoy neighbors.
I believe my city's code includes language basically that any animal that becomes a nuisance must be removed; it's how people fight obnoxious dogs. The same could be suggested for people who don't manage their roosters according to the stipulations in the code.
