I just called my town and they were MOST UNHELPFUL. I am quite upset. They consider chickens as farm animals and that is that. There is nothing I can do short of spending upwards of $700 in fees to initiate a zoning change, which of course would also take a lot of time. And no way can I spend that kind of $$.
My daughter is going to be heartbroken. I wonder what other people have found. I read on line somewhere that maybe going around and getting permission from all your neighbors (to make sure no one complains) and then doing it quietly may work. Of course, they now have my name at city hall and this lady was so rude I could imagine her sending someone over here to check us out!
Oh, so SAD! My daughter had spent hours yesterday drawing pictures of chickens and researching breeds!!
