A note in the minutes of the May Zoning & Planning Commission meeting said that the town planner is planning to introduce regulations regarding chickens.I called him to see what the issues and plans were. He said he hadn't drafted anything yet, but his goal was to permit chickens on property less than 5 acres, given people can have 2 horses on 2 acres, but need to have 5 acres for chickens. His heart is in the right place, but, a careful reading of the zoning regs will show that the regs do not require 5 acres for chickens! In fact, the only references to poultry all reference "for commercial purposes." Nevertheless, anyone interested in assisting provide guidance before we are hit with new rules may PM me if you want to discuss. This topic may come up at the Jun 18 Zoning commission meeting.
