In the meantime, we are continuing with our program of "City Council Member of the Week." This week's council member has been Dr. Ella Ward. Here is my most recent letter, addressed to her:
Dear Dr. Ella Ward:
On
behalf of "4 Chesapeake Hens," let me thank you for your vote to send
the "hen issue" to the Planning Commission for a recommendation. Our
group is confident that the Commission's diligent research will produce
recommendations in favor of the hens.
We
hope that you or a representative of yours will be able to make it to
Patricia Foreman's talk about the benefits of chickens at the Central
Library on Tuesday, October 9. Pat has degrees in city planning, animal
science, genetics, and nutrition, so she knows whereof she speaks.
In
the meantime, if you have any concerns or questions for us, feel free
to let us know. We will make our best efforts to address them.
Sincerely,
Update: On November 20, Chesapeake City Council voted 6-3 to allow hens with certain restriction in residential areas.
