CHICAGO’S ONLY GOAT DAIRY AND OTHER LONGTIME URBAN FARMERS SAY LIVESTOCK ORDINANCE WOULD SHUT THEM DOWN –

An ordinance seeking to put in place more strict regulations, fines and fees for urban farmers and residents that keep chickens, goats, pigs and other livestock, would threaten the existence of longtime urban farmers such as the GlennArt goat dairy. The owners say the move would have grave unintended consequences for those who are already working to educate residents about livestock cultivation to improve animal welfare in the city.
