I have 4.5 acres on my property, and at times, I'll have however many livestock I need to hold on that property, and nobody is going to regulate that situation unless they want to buy me out. Thats all there is to it." Fila Harris said, When I was a child, we had to milk cows, We had to make our own but-thter and cheese. We made our own sausage. Those skills are a dying art, and Im afraid that if we continue zoning away our rights to pass on those skills to our children, those skills will die. Susan Flavel stated that she animal ordinance. The first change states that animals for use of occupants of a resi- dential zone lot and their guests may be kept so long as they constitute no nuisance or health hazard and provided acre of at least for is available pasture area each horse, or cow, or up to live sheep, or up to five goats. The second change states that animals are kept on the premises at least one (1) day each calendar year, or the in- tent to keep animals on the was in favor of the proposed premises are maintained in a changes. It has been said that usable condition. Several citi- - we are losing our rights every at one-ha- lf day and surprisingly, this is in the opposite direction, said Flavel.

Council stated that they will take action on the matter at the next City Council meeting. In related matters, the Council accepted and adopted changes in the Dog Ordinance which included toughening up the laws on vicious dogs and becoming more lenient toward kennel licensing. The ordinance did not include banning full-bre- d or part pit-bull- s. "Are you sure you want to marry us? In remarriages, generally the second husband or wife is as bad or worse as the first."
