Surgoinsville, TN proposed chicken ordinance

[alwaystj9]

Copied from another site but I looked at the local Tennessee newspaper and it is, indeed, copy of proposed ordinance.
The up to $50/day fines proposed in it seem a bit steep and unrealistic. I don't see any "grandfathering in" of people who already own chickens. I would be raising all kinds of heck, In the town where I am, my small farm actually predates the community.

Someone said that it got voted down

I hate it when Miserable Martha’s and B****y Betty’s get together to control everyone else around them.

VERY interesting! This town is about an hour and a half from me. This makes me wary and I WILL be on the lookout for any similar ordinance proposals closer to my town.
