This petition has been created to gather signatures in support of legalizing backyard chickens in Oostburg, WI.
Oostburg residents, please help us by signing this petition! It would be helpful if you would include the street that you live on in the comments section.
Check out our Facebook page "Backyard Chickens for Oostburg" to view the original letter to the Village Board and the very thorough and well written proposed ordinance that failed to pass at the April board meeting.

Seeing the count climb this high feels like a heavy weight lifting off my chest. I am exhausted by this process but this momentum proves that I am not fighting alone. We keep pushing forward.

Linden street resident here. Totally support this proposal.
Keepin them on Center Ave and they really arent a bother to anyone. Its about time the village caught up with the times.
My kids would love to learn how to take care of chickens in the backyard. Why is this even a fight?
FRESH EGGS! Let us have them already.
This is ridiculous that surrounding actual urban areas allow chickens but a small village that most would consider "country" would not. Hens are quiet, clean and are no more of a nuisance the rabbit in a hutch in the backyard. As long as the owners are clean and courteous and neighbors don't mind, why should the village?
Yes to chickens
We want Chickens!!!!

Living on North 10th and I need some fresh eggs for the family. People have dogs that bark way more than a hen ever would.
