Rogers explained he wasnât sure he wanted to pay for a portion of the project when the city had debt to pay. City clerk Becka Cox explained the debt the city had was water and sewer and was separate. Rogers said he knew that and it was still debt.
A second reading and passage of ordinance 2021-02, establishes certain regulations harboring fowl within the city limits of Russellville.
City attorney Elizabeth Teel read the ordinance change at the Tuesday, April 20th meeting of the city council. Teel stated to better serve the aesthetic and health interests of the city of Russellville and its citizens, the council deemed it appropriate and necessary to revise its ordinance.
The ordinance now reads:
No person shall for any purpose keep within the city any fowl within a district that has a zoning designation as residential unless the property upon which the fowl is kept is larger than two acres, in which case, the person may keep up to five fowl as long as the fowl are kept in pens and enclosures and not permitted to run at large upon the property. According to the ordinance, fowl shall mean any chicken, duck, guinea, goose, pigeon or dove, or any species of fowl of the avian or aquatic family.
