Township headaches...!

Welcome to BYC & best of luck with your issue!

First I wish to thank you for all you have done to protect me and my family and friends and our right to live as we do.
Please keep copies of anything the township requires of you, as sadly they do not seem to be able to hold on to essential paper work. If your previous psychiatrist (or you ) still have a copy of the original letter, I would send a copy of that as well. You are entitled to have a support animal (s). It sounds like someone in the township is being an A-hole. Hopefully, the latest letter will solve the problem. If not, is there a council person or someone over the zoning guy that you can speak with?
I will be praying for an outcome that favors your needs.

Thank you for your kind words of encouragement, but I view my time in service to our government much as you would view going to work on a regular basis...it was simply my job, for 18 years. Until "inaccurate intel and reconnaissance," (I'm quoting the official U.S. response,) "grossly under-estimated the number of enemy combatants, Republican Guard, hostile civilians, and even early Taliban fighters,") present at the time, January 23rd of '91, brought my career, as well as three of my men's, to an abrupt halt. I already told the "new" township zoning inspector, "You're gonna lose this one!
With every good wish, I remain,

Zhevotnya

My township in Michigan "permitted" me to keep poultry in 2016, due to a letter sent to them by my Veterans' Administration psychiatrist, who pointed out that "as a 100%, combat-disabled veteran, keeping poultry is essential to my continuing recovery from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Survivor's Guilt, Manic Depression, and Bi-Polar Disorder. (I never heard another word from them, until now!) The "new" zoning enforcement guy says he "cannot find" the letter from just seven years ago, so I had my current psychiatrist write a letter stating the same, and personally handed a copy to the township supervisor. Is it a case of "the ball is in their court," or should I investigate the "Right to Farm" act?

Welcome. I think you should do both.

So sorry about the grief your getting. I told DW a couple days ago that a town is a Home Owners Association with guns. IF I ever move again, you couldn't GIVE me a house in the city limits.
