We received a letter from Gerrish twp. It asks us to remove all of our chickens and chicken equipment with a copy of our local zoning laws attached. I am sending them a letter stating the Michigan right to farm act. We have been letting the girls out to roam and a neighbors dog has been coming on our property trying to kill them. I am almost sure they are the ones that called on us. Can someone tell me how to obtain the complaint using the freedom of information act? We will no longer allow them out to free range. My letter sites the RTFA and says I am complying with GAAMPS. I also mention it is a family farm and I sell my eggs to friends and family. Is there anything else I need to state clearly in the letter? Thanks for the help. We love our girls and know many families in our rural twp. that have chickens so hopefully this will not be a tough fight.
