Does the Ordinance of Lincoln Nebraska need to be Updated?

[Blazinga]

I looked at what I believe to be Lincoln's current Municiple Code. It does not match the article on this city's policies. I believe it has changed in some form as it states that for lands 1 acre or less, Chickens ducks or other fowl weighing 3-5lbs range at a minimum of 3 and a maximum of 20. Does this mean that having more than the previously established two is allowed? It's rather confusing to figure out given the pretense of the two hens rule and reading through the current code.

Here's a Link for further reading on the subject:http://online.encodeplus.com/regs/lincoln-ne/doc-viewer.aspx#secid-7888

It's under the sections Animal Control Regulations, then, 6.04.040 Pigeons, Small Animal, and Fowl Permit Requirements.

I consulted Animal Control. You may have two hens without a permit and up to 20 with a permit on a lot less than an acre. I hope that clarifies anything for those who found the Municipal code unclear.
