Barnyards must be at least 75 feet from a residence and kept in a sanitary condition, as well as other outside buildings, before a permit is issued to keep cows, pigs, chickens, or other livestock on the premises. A time limit of April 1 has been set for property owners to conform to the regulations regula-tions set forth in the recent sanitation sani-tation ordinance and to carry out the recommedations made by the inspectors. Property owners have been asked ask-ed to improve their yards and others have been asked to move them to a more distant location from dwellings.
