Harboring domestic animals and farm animals shall be prohibited within the city limits unless the domestic animal is a pet or the animal is in the possession of a keeper as defined by 6.04.010. Chickens are a permitted farm animal within city limits as provided in 6.08.045. However, the keeping of farm animals shall be exempt from this section and therefore permitted if it occurs on a single property or immediately adjacent properties in the same ownership that (1) exceed 35 acres; and (2) is/are included, in their entirety, in an
agricultural zoning district. This exemption includes the keeping of chickens, which shall be exempt from the provisions of 6.09.045. (Ord. 32-2023 § 1, 2023; Ord. 48-2019, 2019; Ord. 32-2019 § 1, 2019; Ord. 31-2016 § 2, 2016)
