Wecome to BYC, and sorry something like this was what led you here.

I took a look at their local ordinances, and it looks like this is falling under the zoning code. Your township seems to have fairly broad restrictions on keeping animals on property that isn't zoned as agricultural residential or on properties smaller than one acre. It looks like ducks could also loosely fall under the noise ordinance, but they aren't specifically mentioned. The part of the noise ordinance that mentions animals could be subject to various interpretations.

It doesn't sound like you spoke with the inspector yourself. Have you received a citation from the township?
