Haven't heard anything new yet... City hasn't contacted me... Code enforcement hasn't contacted... But I have had more support than I have ever thought possible! I had a sweet lady leave a note on my door telling me not to give up and if I needed anything to call her! I called her up just to...

http://www.indeonline.com/article/20150916/NEWS/150919418/10657/NEWS Here it is! Council woman that was really nice to me kind of stabbed me in the back though...

Had an interview yesterday with the Massillon Independent newspaper! Excited to see it when it comes out. Let's hope this is just one step closer to getting the chickies legal! Operation save the chickens is in full swing!

I don't think I'm in a platted subdivision but who knows in this city!! I did talk to an attorney yesterday. He was completely on my side about everything and said that the ordinance needs to be clearer and it was even hard for him to make sense of it. There is another person going to court on...

Perry township goes by the Ohio Revised Code. You are allowed to have them under certain stipulations. I spoke to the zoning officer and he was really friendly and willing to help explain. The only thing I really know off hand is that you have to have more than an acre to have them..at least...

I went to the city council meeting last night and spoke and it actually went very well! They are bringing up the issue in their meeting on Monday! After I spoke a man from the newspaper said he might do an interview with me as well. We might be getting somewhere!!! Woohoo...

Well it all started with the stupid complaint and I received 2 notices that were just door hangers that said we weren't allowed to raise chickens in the city. I contacted the code enforcement officer and said I was going to contact my councilwoman to discuss the unclear ordinance and that I was...

I'm going to the city council meeting tonight, is this something I should bring up?

So even though the city of Massillon has their own set of ordinances they still have to go through the Ohio Revised Code? And yes I am on the very west side of Massillon. I am .1 miles away from the city limits and there are cows not even a half a mile away from me. I tried telling code...

MaBe sorry that wasn't me but I appreciate your support!! Where is the link that you posted? I would like to read it! MichAttorney this is my same argument. I don't get how they can say an animal is running at large when it is on my private fenced in land?? There is also another ordinance that...

That's last years schedule. They have an updated website but for some reason that old one always pops up.

Yes all the support we can get is best!! They are at 7:30 at 1 James Duncan Plaza, it's on the same street as the Massillon Museum!

Yes it's very old and that's why I'm hoping they'll give it a chance of maybe changing it up a bit since urban farming is becoming so popular! And I did research all the surrounding cities and townships and Massillon is the only one that is apparently saying no we can't have them. The other...

I am currently in contact with my councilwoman talking about the issue. The next council meeting is on Sept 8th. You should come! I will be there!

I have talked to my councilwoman for Massillon and told her what was going on and she told me in the city they do not allow farm animals but she seemed like she was willing to look into the issue. The next council meeting is Sept 8th so I will definitely be attending! The only big problem I'm...

Anybody else live in the city of Massillon that would be willing to help fight for the chickens?
