That's an interesting comment, because that was the problem. No-one wanted to make a motion because they did not want to open the doors to other people wanting their definition of livestock, in the city. The official decision is that for a period of one year, we show no cause to get complaints and we will have their full permission. My theory is... if they change the wording of the code, we will by then be Grandfathered in. The main discussion was if this would open a pandoras box of people wanting farm animals in the city, and what the ramifications would be. I can tell you that the City Attorney, the Mayor and two of the Council members thought there was no threat. It was a lot of sitting around, looking at each other, shrugging shoulders and saying "I don't know". Their ( the city codes ), definition of "Livestock", is weak. When I get my hard copy of written permission, i will then offer to help them access other info as to whittling it down. The entire meeting was far more intense than I had envisioned it to be.
