Below are the relevant ordinances for our zoning district below. Do you see anything here that says there is a max of 10 animals?
In our district, the following is a "conditional use"
Animal husbandry, milk processing, livestock production including breeding of dairy and beef cattle, sheep, swine, horses, ponies, mules, goats, poultry, game birds, fowl, fur animals, and associated farm animals provided that conditions for indoor confinement and housing be exercised and performed within the following requirements which shall not pertain to domestic pets like cats and dogs in compliance with the requirements of Section 801.4.C of this Ordinance.
And here is section 801.4.C referred to above:
Permitted use:
Animal husbandry, milk processing, livestock production including breeding of dairy and beef cattle, sheep, swine, horses, ponies, mules, goats, poultry, other birds, fowl, fur animals, associated farm animals including domestic cats and dogs, if the number exceeds l0.
Buildings housing animals and storage areas for animal waste shall have a minimum setback distance from any property line in accordance with the following schedules:
(1) Permitted Use:
