We homeschool our children and they love animals. It would be great for them to learn about raising chickens and the life cycle hands on. This would also help them learn where their food comes from and appreciate the farmers.
Joshua supported: Legalize the Keeping of Backyard ChickensNicholasville allowed me to have chickens within city limits. Not only were they a joy to have, EVERYONE neighbor enjoyed them and all of the kids learned something from them. It’s not every day a child gets to be up close and personal with chickens. They do not smell. They are great at controlling pests. They are not noisy and they provide eggs and meat for families. I believe the ban should be lifted and allow (X) amount of hens within city limits much like Nicholasville!
Anna supported: Revise Georgetown KY City Ordinance to Allow Chickens within City LimitsI have raised hens within city limits in Lexington before. The joy of watching chickens grow and collecting eggs daily was a real joy! After moving to Georgetown and learning this was not allowed in city limits seemed to me to be a bit...backward. With tge price of eggs greater than $4.00 per dozen, there has never been a better time to revise this ordinance. Let's join our neighbors and start welcoming these sociable birds into our back yards.

Chloe supported: Revise Georgetown KY City Ordinance to Allow Chickens within City LimitsBefore realizing they were prohibited we had hens. Our 14yr old son raised them and then had a little business with surrounding neighbors. It was a great learning experience for him as he did all the work. Not to mention how much better a fresh egg tastes 😋 They never smelled and were never loud. Just like with any other pet, they can be great if taken care of properly.
Tosha supported: Revise Georgetown KY City Ordinance to Allow Chickens within City LimitsAs neighbors just a few houses away from Becky, we have no problem with her having chickens, ducks, turkeys, etc in her run in her front yard. She has worked really hard to comply with the county variance in the context of her property allowances & we believe it’s only fair that she should be acknowledged as a law abiding good neighbor as things stand now, without any further changes, especially since she followed the direction of the official Bartow county official. Any decision less than this acknowledgment means not only unfairness to her but to all of us since we would then be asking, who will be next to be picked on at the whim of whoever is in power.
Randy supported: What the Ffffffarm's Aviary PlightI live 2 houses down from Becky and have enjoyed getting to know her. She is very kind and cares about all her chickens and turkeys. As a neighbor, I do not see the need for her to move her chicken run/housing to another location. She has worked very hard complying the first time to move it and stayed within regulations. Because we live in the country and many of the neighbors have chickens - I don’t see the need for her to move it to her back yard where her property is not conducive to putting up a chicken run. We are all neighbors and care for each other on Long Road and I personally support Becky and her position to keep the chicken run where it is currently located.
