***update from the mayor, I will need FULL addresses for all those in favor*** I was trying to avoid making everyone share their address. If you feel more comfortable sending it privately, please let me know. Thanks so much!

The powers that be, during the middle of a major economic downturn, chose to vote on taking away the ability of modest families of our Village one of the few ways to cheaply feed themselves with eggs and meat. They also took a swipe at our citizens ability to remain self sufficient in using chickens to supplement their food availability. Another fine example of bureaucratic meddling. Shameful

If a man can own peacocks in town, then who’s to say no to chickens? Those peacocks are louder than a group of chickens.

please allow chickens in Downs

I want chickens !!

We would like to have chickens in Downs, IL

I would love to see the villagers be able to own some hens.

I vote yes for chickens!
