It shall be the duty of any person owning or having within their management or control, any chickens, turkeys, geese or other poultry, to keep same in an enclosure upon their own premises at all times. Enclosure shall mean a house or building, or in case of a fence or structure or pen, it must have secure sides, top, and a secure bottom. The structure or pen shall provide protection from the weather.
No chickens, turkeys, geese or other poultry shall be kept in any enclosure within the city, any part of which enclosure is within 100 feet of any adjoining property within the city other than the building or dwelling occupied by the owner of the animals.
This section is not to be construed to prevent owners from keeping pet animals inside their residence.
