It's another thing that you can tax, ticket, or permit... bringing money to the city. A limit of a few hens and no roosters, would rarely be a nuisance and would provide fresh eggs for residents. A simple online system could be used for applying for permits and for submitting nuisance complaints.

There is no good reason not to allow chickens in town as long as they are well cared for.

Chickens should be legal. Is it completely silly to disallow having chickens in our area.

I can't see any reason for not having well kept chickens in town. Maybe not the roosters

Rockford is in dire need of more affordable ways to feed a family. Home gardens and coops could be the answer to this, it itwould give fresh eggs, oreven meat, for a percentage of the cost that it would be in a store, it would also be healthier as homegrown would not have as many chemicals as pre-packaged foods would.

This would be a very good first step towards becoming a progressive, sustainable community. Many big cities already allow chickens and actually encourage it. C'mon Rockford! Be smart!

I believe that chickens should be allowed in back yards. They make amazing pets and give the most tasty eggs! Please allow these people to have them.
