I would like to organize a group to help change the chicken ordinances in Vestal, NY. If anyone living in Vestal is interested in helping change the laws please get in touch with me.

So I just read the town code and there is no prohibition specifically against chickens. They mention fowl in the “Animals” section. However, would a coop require a building permit? Not sure. If it has no plumbing or electric I think you’re ok. The issue comes with the fact that if there is a nuisance, and two neighbors complain, then the town gets involved. Let me know if you all see anything different. I’m not a lawyer, now do I play one on tvI grew up in Vestal and my family still has a house there so I’m curious as well. Much of the outlying areas still in the 13850 zip code are pretty rural and had “farm animals” 30 years ago. Anyone have any updates? Our home is south of the vestal parkway near African Road school.
