<br /> <br /> STAFF REPORT <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />TO: Mayor Keis and Members of City Council <br /> <br />FROM: Jessica Jagoe, Associate Planner <br /> <br />DATE: September 9, 2016 <br /> <br />RE: Allowance for Chickens in R-1, Single-Family Residential <br /> <br />City staff has prepared the attached draft ordinance to allow chickens in Little Canada based on the <br />comments made by the City Council during the August 24th meeting. Staff used ordinance language <br />from Lake Elmo, Shoreview, and Maplewood to develop the proposed regulations. In addition, I’ve <br />included restrictions based on suggestions submitted by Ms. Renee Schott to ensure proper safety and <br />care of the animals. Staff did not include language provisions for licensing periods, fee, or penalties. <br />If the Council would like to move forward with adoption of such ordinance, city staff will prepare a <br />final ordinance which will include these provisions as well as any comments and/or suggestions you <br />may have on the draft ordinance. In addition, I will prepare an amendment to the zoning code <br />language for R-1, Single-Family Residential to allow for chickens. <br /> <br /> <br />CC: Renee Schott
