When Dawn in Hudson Ohio (NE Ohio) wrote of her "Urgent! Your Input Needed!": "I have a lovely family that needs to move into a larger home.They would like a property where they can raise chickens!
I thought the problem was the chickens.
I remember seeing chickens on a street corner on the west side of Columbus a couple of years ago.
I have chickens on the brain. There was a chicken incident in a Worthington Ohio neighborhood recently. I am just barely aware of the chicken incident. A Worthington resident has pet chickens? A neighbor's dog attacked a pet chicken? There is a sentence in a recent article in the Worthington version of ThisWeek Worthington, it is at the end of an important article about the rezoning of the Kilbourne Building on the Village Green in Worthington.
The sentence about city council says a Worthington resident suggested "that council permit a limited number of chickens to be raised in the city, that a leash law for the control of dogs be considered, and that the city study how solar panels can be incorporated into homes and schools."
Of course the sentence clearly states the legalization of chickens and dog leash laws in the City of Worthington are two separate issues... before the city council... somehow I managed to not get the solar panel proposal all mixed into it.
Since reading that sentence when I see or hear the word chicken I keep puzzling over what it said about chickens and leashes in the article about Worthington...
I had a listing in Sharon Township (Worthington School District) with chickens... a chicken coop, eggs... (old chickens became roasting chicken's) a number of years ago. Big lot, secluded, but hemmed in with houses in the city of Columbus, also in the Worthington City School District behind. I wonder when I drive by on Olentangy River Road if the current owners still have the chickens. Or descendants of the seller's chickens. I thought when we listed the house that the sellers were excluding the chickens but it seemed when it came right down to it moving chickens was not a good option. They were NOT pet chickens. They were raised for their eggs.
What next cows grazing on the Village Green in Worthington?

Maureen, I just saw this while searching for something else! And do you know, I DID find them a home where they can have chickens this year!!
Thanks Dawn I am glad they have a home where they can have chickens!
City of Columbus allows chickens. I have heard of a number of people in Clintonville who are keeping chickens, not as pets.
Fashionable.
I believe Grandview and Worthington have said no to chickens. I would need to double check for any clients who want to keep chickens though of course. Laws change.
