f. Climate control - adequate ventilation and/or insulation to maintain the coop <br />temperature between 45 - 85 degrees Fahrenheit. Prior to issuance of an annual license, <br />the prospective annual license holder must provide a plan for maintaining an adequate <br />temperature in the coop for safety of the fowl or poultry. The plan must address both <br />extreme winter and summer temperature conditions. <br />g. Rodent proof - coop construction and materials must be adequate to prevent <br />access by rodents. <br />h. Coops shall be constructed and maintained in a workmanlike manner. <br />(3) A pen and exercise yard is required. Pen and exercise yard must be constructed <br />and maintained to meet the following minimum standard: <br />a. The pen and exercise yard is located adjacent to the coop and shall be fenced with <br />adequate coverage to keep hens in and predators out of a material that can be easily raked <br />or regularly replaced to reduce odor and flies. <br />b. Minimum size per bird shall be: <br />i. Pen -10 square feet of floor space <br />ii. Exercise yard - 174 square feet <br />(4) Screening shall be installed around the perimeter of the area dedicated for the <br />keeping of chickens in a manner that minimizes view from adjacent parcels. A screening <br />plan shall be approved as part of license application subject to any additional permit <br />requirements for installation. Acceptable forms of screening are a six (6) foot tall solid <br />fence or vegetation that shall consist of plantings which shall provide for year round <br />screening and installed at a minimum of six (6) feet tall. <br />(5) Chickens must not be housed in a residential house or an attached or detached <br />garage. <br />(6) All premises on which hens are kept or maintained shall be kept clean from filth, <br />garbage, and any substances which attract rodents. The coop and its surrounding must be <br />cleaned frequently enough to control odor. Manure shall not be allowed to accumulate in a <br />way that causes an unsanitary condition or causes odors detectible on another property. <br />Failure to comply with these conditions may result in the officer removing chickens from <br />the premises or revoking a chicken license. <br />(7) All grain and food stored for the use of the hens on a premise with a chicken <br />license shall be kept in a rodent proof container. <br />(8) Hens, coop, pen, and exercise yard shall not be kept in such a manner as to <br />constitute a nuisance to the occupants of adjacent property. <br />(9) Any violation of the above conditions, (i.e. roaming chickens, uncontrolled odor), <br />if not remedied within 10 days, may result in revocation of the homeowner's license. <br />
