5. Comments and suet esti� citizens present on any item not on the agenda.
Phil Veisor, 3232 Gladstone Lane, asking when the ordinance on chickens and bees will be on
the agenda. Pausche stated possibly March and that staff can let him know if he leaves his

efforts.
Julie Eddington provided back ground on TIF District 1 -3 and stated a five year extension to the
five year rule was approved in 2009. Due to the recession, Staff recommends requesting
another five year extension from May 5, 2015 to May 5, 2020, in order to allow more time for
redevelopment activities that will qualify for tax increment.
MOTION by Gesch, seconded by Salazar, to express support to extend the Five Year Rule for
the Mound Harbor Tax Increment Financing District 1 -3 through legislative efforts. All voted in
favor. Motion carried.
7. Visit by Minnesota Senator David Osmek.
Senator Osmek handed out copies of the bill to request an extension of the five year rule for
Mound Harbor Tax Increment Financing District 1 -3 that he will be sponsoring in the legislature
this session. Senator Osmek gave background on legislation and initiatives that have taken
place during his first year in office, including allowing commuter buses to have access to
shoulder lanes during rush hour and drafting legislation for Joint Power Authority's (JPA's) to be
included in the sales tax exemption legislation.
Mayor Hanus asked Senator Osmek to elaborate on the actions by the Met Council. Osmek
said the challenge is to get the Met Council to look at different options for transit other than their
vision. Osmek stated the legislation he proposed would use existing infrastructure and not cost
the tax payer anything.
8. D[SGUSSf 011 on the _OStmg of emalt agaresb eh aeou eetaecu 1caJJV11Zc HIULV4Vl3.
Hanson stated a non -Mound resident requested email addresses in addition to phone numbers
be included in the quarterly City Contact. Hanson also said in some cities there are protocols
and asked if there were preferences the Council wanted to express. Salazar reiterated the
request and Hanus said the email information is contained on the website. Gesch wondered
why the City did not provide an official email address from a legal and security perspective.
Mayor Hanus said past protocol was that the City Manager would pole the Council on minor
topics like this and he does not feel a change is necessary. Hanson said some concerns were
expressed over City responses to emails. Gillispie stated she had concerns about sensitivity of
the tone of emails. Hanson said Wegscheid said it is important that Council members should
restrain responses and make sure the facts are checked with Staff.
Hanus said efforts have been made to make things work as efficiently as possible and he would
not like to see any changes at this time. Hanus said one of the comments expressed to him by
a council member was a concern that results could be slanted in the poling method. Hanus did
not feel that was a concern.

Boulevard, explained he was on the verge of being removed from his apartment and wanted to

RE: 2014 Street, Utility and Retaining Walt Improvements
City Project Nos. PIV- 14 -01, PW -14 -02
Final Plans and Specifications — Three Points Boulevard
Dear Mayor and City Council Members:
The 2014 street, utility and retaining wall improvement project plans and specifications have
been completed and we are requesting approval of these plans in order to move ahead with the
project as presented at the public improvement hearing with some minor modifications. The final
plans now include an additional westbound approach lane on Three Points Boulevard at
Commerce Lane. This widening, within existing right -of -way, will provide for separate left -turn
and right turni lanes; there is currently only one westbound approach lane which prevents right -
turning traffic from turning "right on red" until any left - turning vehicles have moved onto
Commerce after the signal changes to green.
While it was stated at the Public Improvement Hearing that we would be replacing all of the
existing curb and gutter, we have been able to design the project enabling some of the existing
curb and gutter to remain in place. In addition, we have minimized impacts to boulevard trees, by
planning for the new watermain to be installed by trenchless means in locations where it would
have necessitated the removal of several trees. New water services will still require the removal
of some trees and bushes in various locations.
Another item for the Council to be aware of is the designation of Crescent Park, located south of
Three Points Boulevard at Sumach bane and Sparrow Road, as a temporary storage area for the
contractor to use, during the course of the project. Due to the confuted space in which the
contractor needs to build this improvement, we feel it is in the best interest of all parties to
provide this nearby storage /staging site for the contractor to use. It will allow the contractor a
much more efficient way to build the project as the alternative would be for the contractor to
continually haul in the neoessary construction materials as they are needed. The benefit to the
City should be better bid prices and an efficient and timely project completion.

Approximately one - quarter of an acre of the passive park area will be needed and it will be
fenced off and closely monitored by staff. The contractor will be responsible for total restoration
of the site upon completion of the project as well as keeping it as orderly as possible during
construction. In addition, the contractor's access to/from the Park will be restricted to Sumach
bane. We will notify all of the affected residents prior to the start of any construction activity and
any needed repair of Sumach Lane will be included with the project.
Finally, the Council will be receiving the Engineering Report for the Bartlett Boulevard
Watermain Replacement project at the February 25" Council meeting. If approved for final plan
preparation, it is recommended to include that project with the Three Points Boulevard project
due to the extensive amount of watermain replacement with the Three Points Boulevard project.
We have followed up on all the comments received at the November 12, 2013 Public
Improvement Hearing and are now requesting adoption of the attached resolution approving final
plans and specifications for the 2014 Street, Utility and Retaining Wall Improvement Project and
authorizing advertisement for bids to be received on April t, 2014. We anticipate requesting
award of bid at the following Council meeting on April E, 2414.

RE: Engineering Report
Bartlett Boulevard Watermain Improvements
City Project No, PW -14 -06
Bear Mayor and Members of the Council:
� r-- E(..`
The 2013 -2017 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) includes the replacement of aging waterma.in that is prone
to breakage and rupture along Bartlett Boulevard from Commerce Boulevard to Shoreline Boulevard. This
work is scheduled to be done over a three -year period, beginning this year with the section from the Lost
Lake outlet bridge to Wilshire Boulevard, In 2015 the section from Commerce Boulevard to the Lost take
outlet bridge is scheduled for replacement and the section from Wilshire Boulevard to Shoreline would be
replaced as part of the annual street reconstruction project scheduled for 2016.
By Council Resolution adopted on January 28, 2014, an engineering Feasibility Report was ordered for the
first section of Bartlett Boulevard Watermain Replacement from the Lost Lake outlet bridge to Wilshire
Boulevard. The purpose of this report is to determine in a preliminary manner, the feasibility of
reconstructing this section of existing watennain, along with side street connections at Lost Lake Road,
Lakewood Lane and Wilshire Boulevard, and replacing the portion of Bartlett Boulevard impacted by the
Watermain replacement work.
IIk.CKGROUNII
The City of Mound's existing water distribution system includes many pipes that are made from cast iron
materials and date back to the original installation of the system in the 1960's. Some of these pipes have
reached the end of their usable fife and are prone to breaking and rupture, particularly during the winter
months. This is evidenced on the attached figures 1 -3 showing the number of watermain breaks and
subsequent street patches that have been repaired along Bartlett Boulevard.
Hennepin County staff have indicated that Bartlett Boulevard (designated as County Road 125 from
Commerce Boulevard to Wilshire Boulevard) is likely to be milled and overlayed within the next 2 to 3
years. once Hennepin County performs this pavement rehabilitation, there will be a period of moratorium
on any voluntary construction projects to replace underlying utilities, with the exception of emergency
repairs.

PROPOSED PROJECT
Bartlett Boulevard is located in the center of the City and extends from Commerce Boulevard (County Road
110) east and north terminating at Shoreline Drive (County Road 15). The improvements are proposed
from the east side of the Lost Lake outlet bridge, located between Commerce Boulevard and Lost Lake
Road, and terminating at the intersection of Bartlett Boulevard and Wilshire Boulevard. The proposed
project will replace the watermain and valving in this area and service connections will be reconnected at
the main. Existing curb stops and services will not be replaced, unless necessary, to limit the amount of
excavation and subsequent street reconstruction that will be performed.
The attached figures (1 -3) indicate the locations of breaks that have occurred in the existing watermain
piping along the Bartlett Boulevard corridor. The attached figure 4 shows the locations of proposed 2014
watermain improvements.
The included street reconstruction is to restore the pavement where excavation is necessary to remove and
replace the watermain, valving, and services connections, and is not considered a full reconstruction of the
roadway.
ESTIMATED COSTS
The proposed project is feasible from a technical standpoint. In addition, the project is necessary to provide
drinking water as free as possible from maintenance and interruptions in service, and the proposed
improvements represent cost effective means for doing so.
Estimated Cost Summary:
SUBTOTAL CONSTRUCTION COST
$714,238
5% CONTINGENCIES
$35,792
TOTAL CONSTRUCTION COST
_ $749,950
20% INDIRECT COSTS
$949,990
TOTAL PROJECT COSTS
$899,940
An itemized cost estimate is also attached.
The proposed project schedule, if approved, would be to open bids and award the project in conjunction
with the 2014 Street, Utility, and Retaining Wall Improvement Project in April.
We request the Council adopt the attached Resolution receiving this Engineering Report and authorize
preparation of final plans and specifications for the Bartlett Boulevard Watermain Improvements, Lost Lake
Bridge to Wilshire Boulevard.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Sarah Smith, Community Development Director
Rita Trapp, Planning Consultant
DATE: February 21, 2014
SUBJECT: Urban Agriculture Report —Chicken and Bee Keeping
Background
At its January 7, 2014 meeting, the Planning Commission held a public forum to review a report
on urban agricultural activities related to the keeping of backyard chickens and bees. As was
discussed at the December 3`d Planning Commission meeting, Staff published and posted a
public notice in the December 28th edition of the Laker about the Planning Commission's intent
to discuss this issue at its January 7th meeting.
At present, the regulations in the City Code do not allow for the keeping of chickens or bees,
subject to certain exceptions. In recent years urban agricultural activities have become more
prevalent and the City has received inquiries regarding allowing an expansion of permitted
activities. City Staff is requesting direction from the City Council as to whether such activities
should be permitted or prohibited so an appropriate ordinance revision can be drafted for
future consideration.
The Planning Commission identified the review of the City's current regulations regarding
chickens and bees on its 2013 work project list. A preliminary discussion with the Planning
Commission at their October meeting provided initial thoughts and questions for Staff to
research. The results of this research was put into a formal report and presented at the January
7th Planning Commission meeting. Members of the public were also invited to the meeting to
provide their perspective on the topic.
Staff Recommendation
While Staff is supportive of sustainable practices including locally grown and raised products,
we have concerns about allowing chickens and bees. Mound has relatively small lots resulting
in a greater potential for urban agriculture activities to impact neighboring properties. While
urban agriculture uses may be acceptable to some neighbors, others may find them
incompatible and /or objectionable. Other Staff concerns include the potential for chickens to
attract predators, the potential for public health issues if proper care is not taken of the
animals and the potential for additional City time and expense related to licensing,
enforcement and responding to complaints.
-377-
Staff's recommendation was for the continuation of the current regulations related to the
prohibition of chickens and to also prohibit bees. Amendments to more clearly state these
regulations were also recommended. However, in the event there is interest in permitting
chickens and /or bees, Staff recommended that a new ordinance and permitting process be
created and subsequently reviewed by the Planning Commission and City Council which would
include many of the provisions commonly found in other community regulations.
Planning Commission Meeting Overview and Recommendation
The discussion at the January 7th Planning Commission mainly focused on chickens. Members
of the public who spoke at the meeting were favorable about the City revising its regulations to
allow the keeping of chickens and bees. Individuals identified a variety of reasons for keeping
chickens, including as family pets, for fresh eggs, and for their ability to teach children
responsibility. They felt that keeping of chickens had no greater impact that the keeping of
dogs and cats. After hearing from the public who attended the meeting and discussing it
amongst themselves, the Planning Commission recommended that the City Council direct staff
to prepare ordinance revisions that would allow for the keeping of chickens and bees. The
minutes from the meeting are included for your reference.
Supplemental Information
Given the Planning Commission's recommendation, City Staff has conducted additional
research regarding how to address concerns about predators and public health, as well as to
determine what guidance may be available should the City Council desire to allow chickens.
The research has primarily focused on chickens because in Staffs initial research a model
beekeeping ordinance prepared by the Minnesota Hobby Beekeepers Association was found.
This model ordinance has been used in its entirety or in parts in the development of
ordinances for numerous metro cities, including Minneapolis, Stillwater, and Eden Prairie most
recently in 2013. A similar model ordinance had not been previously identified for chickens.
In its subsequent research, City Staff found "Recommendations for Municipal Regulations of
Urban Chickens" that was created by local Minnesota nonprofit Chicken Run Rescue. This
document, which is included, provides a good background on the keeping of chickens and
could serve as a resource if the City were to create an ordinance allowing chickens. Chicken
Run Rescue is supportive of backyard chicken keeping, but wants to ensure it is done
responsibly.
-378-
Staffs research is that chickens are susceptible to predators and create an attraction to
rodents. Staff has included a copy of an October 2013 memorandum from the University of
Minnesota Extension entitled "Backyard or Urban Poultry Keeping Concerns" which includes
valuable information about the transmission of diseases, nuisances concerns such as noise,
odor, predators /pests and the generation and disposal of waste. It is mentioned in the
memorandum that larger pests /predators such as foxes, raccoons, and coyotes that already
reside in urban areas may take an occasional chicken however the small populations of poultry
kept in any one area are unlikely to attract and sustain any number of predators. Members are
advised that is important that any regulations require enclosures that are safe from predators
and that food is stored in rodent proof containers; also that appropriate coop management
standards are established.
During the public forum at the Planning Commission meeting, a few questions were raised
about the information contained in the Planning Report. Specifically, it was thought the City of
Excelsior allowed chickens whereas the report stated it did not. Council members are advised
that Staff spoke with City Manager Kristi Luger who indicated that Excelsior adopted new
regulations in late 2013 and their regulations do not allow chickens. Also questioned was why
the City of Shorewood was not included in the report, particularly since they do allow chickens.
Council Members are advised Staff has confirmed that Shorewood adopted an ordinance to
allow backyard chicken keeping in 2012.
Additional Information
City Staff has collected numerous reference materials beyond what has been provided in the
packet. If you would like to review any of these materials, please contact Staff and it will be
sent electronically.

A. Discussion /recommendation — Urban Agriculture Report Study
Keeping of Chickens and Bees
Smith introduced the item. Currently, the City Code does not allow forth e keeping of
chickens subject to certain exceptions. Bee keeping is currently not addressed in the
Code. A notice was published in the Laker regarding this discussion and invited the
public to attend.
The Cities that allow chickens have specific regulations including licensing, limits of
number or gender, square footage requirements for the coop or run, minimum lot size,
and neighboring distance requirements.
Staff looked at Mound relative to lot size in terms of applying the restrictions.
In the current City Code, bees are not mentioned. Historically, if they are not addressed
they are not allowed. In most cities, bees are addressed as an item or as a farm animal.
Staff found that, in other cities, some sort of permitting or licensing, bulk standards,
location on the lot, distances, and separation were issues addressed. Several cities
based on a model bee keeping ordinance. Minneapolis code is also a good example that
many have copied. A summary of the regulations from local communities is in the
packet.
-381-
Because Mound is made up of smaller residential lots, Lakeshore, wetlands and tight
quarters, the potential for neighbor conflicts is significant and staff recommends no
change in the code which would not allow the keeping of chickens or bees. It is
proposed to change the ordinance for clarification, making the regulations as easy to
understand as we can. If the Commission or Council wishes to change the code to allow
chickens or bees, licensing regulations need to be addressed keeping in mind the
neighborhood character and the life safety factors. We support the farm -to -table life
style; however, Mound is very dense making these activities difficult.
Chris Brown (4926 Drummond Road) believes the report was biased. Minneapolis
allows chickens with neighbor consent, as many of them as you want. Excelsior allows
the keeping of any animal as long as it's less than 50 pounds. Woodland and Shorewood
both allow chickens. He wants to know what objections the commission has. It's the
best fertilizer for his gardens.
Retterath asked how much manure one chicken produces. Brown said that 3 chickens
may fill 2 large garbage cans of manure and bedding per year. Brown states that his
neighbors all support his chickens. The chickens have taken care of his mouse problem
as well as regularly weed his vegetable garden. They are quiet; the most noise they
make is when you are feeding them and they chirp. They do not attract varmints as
stated in the report.
Linkert asked about slaughtering. Brown indicated that they are his pets. After their
laying years they are not good for eating; but, he doesn't think anyone should be
prohibited from it.
Jamie Short (3225 Roxbury Lane) was totally opposed when the roosters crowed but
they were quickly replaced with hens. His dogs make more noise than the chickens ever
have. He is opposed to the slaughtering of the animals on the property.
Retterath asked how far the coop is from his house. Short said he is 3 houses away.
Retterath also wanted to know how the dogs react to the chickens; are the dogs
aggressive? Short said the dogs seem to like them. He said you never see the chickens.
Phil Velsor (3232 Gladstone Lane) had 5 chickens, was given a citation and gave the
chickens away to a family friend in Minnetrista. It provided eggs for his family and a job
for his young son. The waste, along with the lawn clippings fit into 2 fifty gallon drums
for the year. He uses it for the garden. His neighbors support it and enjoyed the fresh
eggs. He doesn't see a lot of negative and didn't hear any complaints. His coop was 4 ft
x 8 ft and 6 feet high. An occasional stray dog would cause a problem. He indicated
that the chickens do not pay for themselves but it's a good experience.
Joanne Chemin (6039 Beachwood Road) believes that individual freedom stops where
other's freedoms start. He's worried about legislation for everything. He has friends in
Minneapolis that have tiny lots and chickens. He's considering chickens. They eat ticks.
-382-
He is also in favor of allowing bees. He thinks that if there is a permit fee it will go
against the goal of urban farming.
Short added that there is no comparison in flavor. You can taste the tomatoes and
squash that they eat in the eggs.
Linda Cordie (2531 Lakewood La) is a master gardener and believes in the (33:00) Had
13 or 15 chickens years ago. They were very calming and produced plenty of eggs.
She's excited about coming into the 21s` century. This is being socially conscious and is
one small step we can take as humanitarians. She hopes that it is looked at objectively.
Don't rely on a bunch of old myths i.e., that they stink and make noise.
Erin (4926 Drummond Road) was not excited about the chickens at all. They are
educational and interesting and a joy as baby things that were raised in the house until
it was warm enough outside. Neighbors come by to see the chickens. She thinks it's
important to move forward.
Chris Brown pointed out the survey results. There were 15 in favor and 4 against
allowing the keeping of chickens.
Smith wanted to explain the position of staff in evaluating these issues. A good majority
abuts lakeshore or wetlands; impacts to water and standards within the complexities of
the ordinance (37:20)
Velsor asked how we prevent the pheasants and other wildlife from impacting the water
quality.
Smith responded by saying that she grew up in the country with a coop full of chickens.
She indicated that, the Commission and Council moved ahead with this there would
need to be licensing and regulations created to establish minimum standards; not
everyone will meet the standards. What happens if they're not good experiences? You
all take wonderful care of your animals, but what happens if someone doesn't.
Linkert stated that he is leaning against staff recommendation; there is a fear of the
unknown that is putting a strangle hold on everyone. The City should look into
supporting those that want to undertake these endeavors in a way that staff suggested
in a thoughtful way with license requirements. This is the future. The City should look
into the processes to allow chickens and bees.
Retterath is generally in favor of allowing the chickens and bees; more so the chickens
than the bees. He sees it as a freedom of property use as a core issue. He supports a
one -time permit. An annual permit would be administrative headache. Neighbors stil
have some recourse to accommodate irresponsible husbandry. There is a list of
-383-
municipalities participating; we aren't blazing new trails. We've witnessed a
demonstrated practice; there are psychological and social benefits. He wouldn't limit by
lot size; it's unfair. The key is distance to dwellings; animal waste is well contained.
Gawtry said chickens don't bother him. He can see minimum standards i.e., no roosters;
minimum lot size; maximum amount per lot size. He is on the fence with bees because
of allergy issues and liability; all should have some kind of neighbor consent.
Wegscheid concurs with most everything that's been said Compared to dogs (waste,
barking); it's a freedom of property and personal rights. As long as neighbors don't
complain, just like with other animals.
Goode thinks it's rational and makes sense. The progressive way is refreshing.
Bergquist admits that he didn't know a lot about chickens. He would like more
information. Should probably be a small fee to get it off the ground to cover
administration costs.
Smith summarized that the recommendation from the Commission would be to advance
this to a Council meeting for formal discussion. The Council will give some kind of staff
direction. A public hearing isn't required. The Planning Commission should act on the
report study including whether or not you believe the ordinance should be changed for
chickens and bees.
Retterath questioned the need for a building permit for a chicken coop. Smith
confirmed that a "shed" of 120 SF or less requires no building permit but does have to
conform to setbacks. Retterath would encourage all concerned not to overly
complicate; it could be simple and should be regulated to minimum standards.
Goode asked would the drafting of regulation be subsequent to this action by the City
Council or could that be part of the body of work submitted to the Council? Smith said
it could be either way. Historically, the concept gets advanced to Council and they
direct us further for the details.
Retterath asked about the flyby. Trapp understood it to refer to the path the bees
traveled. A wall of trees, a hedge or a wall -type structure will cause them to fly up and
over, not through an area.
Trapp offered that, because of all the rooftop hives, the City of Minneapolis eliminated
the issue of the flybys when they were to be located on rooftops. A model beekeeping
ordinance by the hobby beekeepers association is being used by many cities in crafting
their local ordinances. If we were going to establish setbacks we would have to look
specifically at Mound. One good aspect of the area is the availability of water.
Neighbors would be impacted more if water were not readily available.
MOTION by Linkert, second by Gawtry, requesting the City Council draft an ordinance
and establish a process for the keeping of chickens and bees, including permitting,
minimum lot size and setbacks, prohibiting roosters, adequate square footage for
chickens and consulting of neighbors. MOTION carried. Voting for: Wiechert, Linkert,
Bergquist, Penner, Gawtry, Goode, Wegscheid; Voting against: Retterath.
Retterath opposed because of the reference to "minimum lot size ". He indicated that
he supported the motion without establishing a minimum lot size provision.

+' FRIMERM
CONSIDERATIONS BEFORE ACQUIRING A CHICKEN
Lifespan
- Chickens can live as long as a dog or cat— up to 14 years or longer.
- Egg laying for a hen generally starts at 6 months old, peaks at 18 months and declines with age.
Cost
- Start -Up costs for coop, maintenance, tools, cleaning equipment, heating / cooling appliances, dishes,
nets, food storage, scale, fencing, security locks, lighting, motion detectors, monitors, cameras, permit
application ($2- 3,000)
- Annual supplies per bird for food, bedding, nutritional supplements, hygiene supplies, permit fee,
utilities ($300)
- Vet care per bird per service (office exam $66, fecal test $28, plus other services as needed for illness or
injury). Are you able to provide the birds with proper veterinary care needed?
Time
- Average 1 hour per bird per day minimum for cleaning, parasite control, grooming, physical exam,
travel time to purchase supplies, construction, repair, medication, feeding, supervise free time out of
pen.
- Chickens need to be tended to twice daily. Will you have a person ready to substitute for you when you
have reason to be absent?
Space
At least a 6 ft x 12ft x 6 it high space in a yard is needed for a coop and pen for 4 birds, in addition to a
larger fenced area for regular exercise.
Location
Coop and pen should be located in an area that provides shade, direct sunlight, good drainage and
protection from prevailing winds and will not present a problem to neighbors.
Uninvited guests
Chickens will attract bird -mites and lice, mice, yard birds, squirrels, raccoons, dogs, coyotes, fox, mink,
opossum, rats, owls, bobcats, hawks, snakes, weasels, ferrets, fishers, martens and humans.
ACQU IRING A CHICKEN: ADOPTION OR PURCHASE /BREEDING?
The recent interest in having chickens has overwhelmed animal rescue organizations with inquiries from
people wanting to give up unwanted chickens. As with all other animals surrendered to shelters, rescue
organizations cannot help them all. There are never enough homes for displaced animals, so adoption of
birds who need homes is always the kindest choice. instead of purchasing from a breeder or hatchery.
Adoption- By adopting from a rescue organization or a private individual, you can know what to expect
with regard to the bird's health, sex, behavior and personality. Reputable rescue organizations can
provide advice on selecting the right bird and care information, and they generally have a generous
return policy to insure that bird will be happy, compatible and well cared for
Purchase /breeding- The identification of the sex of chicks by feed stores, breeders and hatcheries is
often wrong and not apparent until the bird is 6 months old. 50% of the chicks hatched are roosters who
are killed or otherwise discarded of as waste. Newborn chicks shipped through the postal service are
deprived of their mothers, warmth and food. The younger the birds, the more fragile and difficult they
are to care for.

Range/ exercise yard: 174 sq. ft per bird (an area about 10 ft. x 17 ft per bird)
A single chicken is a sad chicken. Plan to have at least 2— they are flock animals and need the
companionship of other chickens. Generally, 3 -S compatible chickens can be well maintained in a typical
city environment. Individual birds' sex, ages and temperaments can affect compatibility. Over crowding
chickens is the most common mistake. Hens should outnumber roosters. Sometimes single birds can
thrive with a human friend if they have special needs. Roosters, single or in pairs, are very sociable and
can make terrific companions if handled gently and often.
HANDLING & RESTRAINT
Never handle a chicken by wings, feet or legs. Herd bird to corner using slow deliberate movement.
(Fast= predator, slow = less threat.) Place hands overtop part of wings (shoulders) and hold securely but
do not squeeze. Pick up and hold under arm to keep wings in place. Support feet with other hand if bird
will tolerate. To restrain for transport or examination, drape a towel over shoulders cape -style and wrap
around body.
TRANSPORTATION
Consider travel time and avoid extreme weather conditions. Heat exhaustion can develop quickly, and
interior car temps can reach fatal point 10 minutes. Medium- sized, hard pet carriers work well for
security, safety, stress. Line with a towel, shredded paper or straw. Food is a good stress reducer. Offer
wet food like greens or cucumber for long trips.
ARRIVAL
if other birds are already present, a 2 -week quarantine in a separate area is recommended to watch for

signs of illness and parasites. Avoid noisy, high - traffic areas, and allow the bird to acclimate before
introducing to other birds, animals and family.
PROVIDING A GOOD HOME
NATURAL HISTORY
It is important to understand how chickens live in the wild and to provide them with an environment
that meets those instinctive physical and psychological needs as closely as possible. Chickens are all
descended from Tropical Jungle Fowl and are adapted to living in a natural habitat that is spacious, richly
vegetated, diverse and warm. This presents a particular challenge in a small, urban setting in a cold
climate like Minnesota.
Flocks have a highly developed social structure and members depend on one another for companionship
and security. Naturalists have observed that they can recognize and remember 180 other individual flock
members. They are ground - dwelling birds. Most are capable of low flight in short distances; smaller birds
can fly higher and farther.
In the wild, they roost in trees at dusk before they sleep or to escape predators. They hide their nests in
cavities in the ground. The majority of their waking hours are spent active, widely ranging, grazing and
foraging for food— plants, bugs and occasionally small rodents. In their natural state, they typically travel
1/2 mile from their roost each day. In the wild, they are never over crowded; if the population becomes
too dense, members will break off into subgroups and spread out. They move on from one area to
another, which allows food sources to regenerate and prevents their waste from concentrating in one
place so it can decompose without health risk to the flock.
Roosters alert the flock to danger, find food and call the hens to it and stand guard as they eat. They
select and build nests and will even participate in caring for the young. They also act as peace keepers to
intervene in disputes that can develop between flock members. Roosters will start to crow and display
courting behaviors at about 6 months of age. It is essential to gently handle a rooster on a daily basis to
establish that you are the flock leader (Alpha) and maintain a well - socialized companion.
The hens spend their time scratching for food, dust bathing, preening, playing and napping. Hens begin
to lay eggs at about 6 months of age. Hens in the wild produce only a few clutches of eggs a year for the
sole purpose of reproduction. Domesticated hens have been bred to lay one egg a day, but by 18 months
of age, egg - laying frequency generally diminishes, and many adult or senior hens stop laying altogether.
Chickens are sociable, cheerful and intelligent creatures who can form lifelong bonds with each other
and other species including humans, dogs and cats. Because of their keen intelligence and instinctive
physical activity, they need a stimulating environment that mimics as much as possible the rich and
diverse world nature designed them to enjoy.
COOP, PEN, RANGE/ EXERCISE YARD
"Housing and infrastructure. The primary purpose of poultry housing is to protect flocks against adverse
weather and predators (coyote, fox, stray dogs, raccoons and raptors). Weather is of critical concern in
the Upper Midwest, where summers can be extremely hot and winters bitterly cold. Housing must
provide shade from sun and cover from rain. It must be able to withstand high winds and snow loads if it
is to be used for year -round operation. These basic housing considerations apply to all poultry."
- Poultry your Way: A Guide to Management Alternatives for the Upper Midwest, Minnesota
Department of Agriculture, 2005
http' / /www brittonclouse com /chickenrunrescue/ Page 4 2/15/104
-389-
COOP: The house, closed structure or enclosed room which provides shelter from cold, heat, wind, rain,
snow and predators for protected roosting, nesting, feeding and watering space.
Construction & Materials — Coops can be purchased ready made or in kits, constructed within an
existing structure or built from scratch. Local building codes should be followed to prevent damage from
snow, wind, etc. NOTE: rabbit hutches, plastic igloos, dog houses and such are not appropriate
structures.
Required features:
Size: 4 sq. feet of floor space minimum is required per bird for the interior (an area 2 ft x 2 ft per bird).
So, four birds will need a coop with an inside floor space of at least 4 ft x 4 ft, not including nest boxes.
Outside dimensions should be about 5 ft x 5 it x 6 ft high. Overcrowding is the most common cause of
behavior problems, injury and disease. Coops should be high enough for a human to stand up
comfortably for cleaning, maintenance and egg collection. It also allows for additional roosting.
Temperament and social structures should be taken into account, and partitions should be available for
birds who are sick, injured or lower in the pecking order.
Access to electricity: This is required in free standing structures.
Floor: The floor should not collect and hold moisture, should be easy to clean, should retain heat in cold
weather and should exclude rodents /predators. A dirt floor draws heat away and is not easy to clean or
to rodent /predator - proof. A wood floor is adequate, provided it is at least a foot off the ground,
insulated and sealed properly— but it is difficult to sanitize because it is porous. A concrete floor is ideal
since it discourages rodents /predators and is easy to sanitize. Regardless of the floor type, bedding
strewn on the surface is needed is to absorb moist fecal matter and facilitate cleaning. Leaves or wood
shavings work best and can be composted or easily bagged and disposed of as solid waste.
Walls- Materials that are resistant to moisture and mold and easily cleaned are best. Chemically treated
materials should be nontoxic. A good compound with anti fungal agents is good for humid areas. Clear
varnish is also good. Everything should be treated or painted before it is assembled. Wooden structures
should be draft free and built with double walls that have at least 1112 inch insulation layer between
them.
Roof: The coop roof should be made of a material that will not collect and hold heat and should be built
with double walls that have at least 1112 inch insulated layer between them. The roof surface should be
covered with an insulating tar paper to protect it from heavy rains. The roof should be slightly inclined,
to allow waterto run off. An overhang at the front wall will protect from downpours. A few small
openings along the eaves allow moisture to escape and provide fresh air.
Doors: One human -sized door is needed for daily access. Doors for chickens should be just large enough
for the largest bird and can be positioned anywhere from ground level to about 2 feet high with a stable
ramp with cleats. Chickens are ground dwellers, not parrots —small doors at heights greater than 3 feet
with flimsy, unstable ladders are not appropriate. Doors must be able to be secured against predators at
night.
Windows: Chickens love windows and need natural light. Double glaze for warmth. Cover with 1 /2"
metal screen so they can be opened for ventilation in hot weather. Allow one square foot of window for
each 10 square feet of floor space.
Roosts: Lumber or branches can be used. They should be strong enough and mounted securely enough
to hold all birds. The surface should be rough for good grip with no splinters orsharp edges. For medium
sized birds, 2" or 4" flat or 1 1/2" diameter is best for foot comfort. The longer the roost, the better it will
prevent competition. They should be set 18" from the wall, 2 -3 feet off the floor. If mounted higher,
rung steps are needed, spaced 8 -12 inches apart. The addition of a dropping board underneath and an
elevated roost will collect droppings and keep floor space below clean and inhabitable.
Climate: Shelters should be kept at a comfortable temperature for the animals. According to the Minn.
Dept. of Agriculture, "Minimum Temperature 55 °(F), maximum temperature 70°
(F)" (Ibid.)
The coop should be heated to maintain a temperature above 32° F during the coldest part of the winter
and cooled below 85° F in the hottest part of the summer.
Up // www. brittonclouse .com /chickenrunrescue/ Page 5 2/15/105
-390-
Below 32° F, birds are uncomfortable and cannot maintain body temperature. Below 15 °F, frostbite
begins, and hypothermia increases. Oil- or water -filled safety heaters (i.e. brands Pelonis, Delonghi,
Honeywell) are completely closed, sealed systems that run on electricity. The oil is heated from within
and the heat is radiant, so there are no exposed heating elements to create dangerous problems even if
they tip over. Heat lamps should only be used with extreme caution and should be firmly attached at
least 3 feet from animals and far from any flammable item, especially dry straw or bedding. Smoke
alarms are highly recommended. Extra bedding should be available to keep animals warm and
comfortable in cold seasons.
Between 750 and 85° F, panting and dehydration begin; above 85° F, heat stress and danger of heat
prostration increases.
Ventilation: Doors, windows and vents near the ceiling supply oxygen, remove heat from breathing,
remove moisture from breath and droppings, remove harmful gasses and dust particles, and dilute
disease- causing, airborne organisms. Fans should be provided for hottest weather.
Light: Natural light from windows and/or skylights are required. Can be supplemented with full spectrum
incandescent light to follow normal seasonal light cycles and for cleaning and maintenance. The
minimum light intensity you should provide should be enough to clearly see the hens feed when
standing over the feeder.
Feeders: Food receptacles should be made of non - corrosive material that is easily cleaned, minimizes
spillage, prevents contamination with droppings and keeps food dry. The containers should be large
enough for all the birds to comfortably eat at once or numerous enough to prevent competition or
intimidation. Large, heavy, rubber feed buckets work nicely. Hanging dishes or feeders work as well and
should be hung at about the level of the bird's back. If dishes are outside the coop, they should be set
under an overhang to keep them dry when it rains.
Waterers: Water receptacles should be made of non - corrosive material that can be cleaned and
disinfected with a solution of chlorine bleach, prevent contamination with droppings and is spill and leak
proof. The containers should be large enough for all the birds to comfortably drink at once and hold
enough water for all birds for an entire day. They should be slightly positioned higher than the feeder or
far enough away to prevent contamination with food.
Nestboxes- One nest box is needed for every 3 hens. A 12 "W x 12 "D x 14 "H box is most versatile.
Chickens prefer wooden nest boxes with covered opening for privacy placed on or as low to the floor as
possible. If set higher, they require a perch in front of the opening. They should be filled with 2 -4 inches
of straw, litter, or grass. They prefer to nest in the southeast corner of the structure whenever possible.
FEN: The pen is a fenced area surrounding the coop that provides secure access to exercise, sunlight,
earth and vegetation and is freely available to the birds when they are unsupervised. It is constructed to
prevent the birds' escape and prevents entry by intruders /predators.
Construction & Materials — Kennel pens can be purchased ready -made or in kits, or built from scratch.
Local building codes should be followed to prevent damage from snow, wind, etc. Temperament and
social structures of flock should be taken into account, and partitions should be available for birds who
are sick, injured or lower in the pecking order.
Required features:
Size: 10 sq. feet of floor space (an area of 3 ft x 3.3 ft) minimum per bird is required, so 4 birds will need
floor space of at least 6 feet x 7 feet. If the coop is adjacent to the pen, at least a 6 x 12 foot space in a
yard is needed. If the coop is elevated 2 feet so the chickens can use the space underneath, the coop and
pen can occupy some, but not all, of the same footprint. Having most of the pen in deep shade all of the
time is conducive to unhealthy bacterial and fungal development. The pen should be high enough for
you to stand up comfortably for cleaning, maintenance, capture and also to allow for additional roosting.
Substrate: Choose a well- drained area. Substrate material for the pen should be clean, nontoxic,
biodegradable, readily available, inexpensive and replaceable. Since it will become compacted from little
feet and contaminated by concentrated droppings and parasites, it will need to be raked out and
http / /www brittonclouse com /chickenrunrescue/ Page 6 2/15/106
-391-
replaced frequently to reduce odor and fly activity. Play -sand, leaves, municipal wood chips, sod and
hard - wearing ground cover work well.
Metal fencing / predator control: The type of fencing depends on what the most likely predators are in
your area. Dogs, rats, raccoons, hawks and coyotes are the most prevalent in city neighborhoods, but
others include fox, mink, opossum, bobcats, snakes, weasels, ferrets, fisher and marten. It's best to build
the strongest deterrents possible. Chain -link panels or welded or woven fencing on a sturdy frame,
reinforced at the bottom with small -mesh metal wire that prevents predators from tunneling under the
fence will discourage most intruders. Regular inspection is the key to security.
Gate: A gate is needed for easy human access.
Cover: The pen should be covered to keep birds in and predators out. The type of covering needed will
depend on the type of predators. Covering part of the pen with a roof such as corrugated fiberglass can
provide shade and rain shelter.
Windbreak: Providing a wind and snow break will give the birds a protected area to be outdoors even in
winter.
Shade: Shade must be available and can be provided by vegetation or strategically placed materials.
Dust bath: Taking a dust bath is the closest thing to heaven for a chicken. They derive pleasure and
contentment by bathing in the sun and in loose, dry soil depressions in the dirt, which cleans their
feathers and rids them of parasites. Birds will usually dig their own hole for dust baths. Keep the soil in
the dust bath loose, and add play -sand if it is a heavy clay soil. Adding a little poultry dust, diatomaceous
earth or wood ash increases the effectiveness of parasite control. Large, heavy rubber feed buckets filled
with play -sand are a welcome addition to the indoor coop in the winter.
Enrichment furnishings: There is nothing sadder than a barren pen, when compared to the rich jungle
environment chickens evolved in. Lots of large branches, stumps or platforms provide places to go and
things to do, and they look natural and attractive in the pen. Include bushes, boxes or other objects to sit
in or hide behind. Plant kale or other safe, edible vegetation around the outside of the pen for forage.
overcrowding, boredom and barren pens are the most common causes of behavioral problems.
RANGE / EXERCISE YARD: The larger fenced area like a backyard that provides ample space for safe
exercise, forage, sunlight, earth and vegetation that is regularly available to the birds when supervised.
For regular exercise, 174 sq. ft per bird (an area about 10 ft x 17 ft per bird) is required. Four birds will
need access to a 40 ft x 70 ft fenced area in the yard. If there is no access to a larger range/ exercise yard,
16 sq. feet of floor space minimum per bird (an area 4 ft x 4 ft per bird) in the pen must be provided.
Fencing: 6 feet of privacy fencing prevents and discourages uninvited human and animal visitors. It also
promotes the safety and security of the birds and neighbors.
Nontoxic plants: Chickens are inquisitive and voracious eaters of vegetation and many ornamental
garden plants can be toxic to them. Learn which of your plants might be harmful and fence them off or
better yet replace them with safe and nutritious plants.
Security: Chickens are susceptible to theft, vandalism and predators and need to be securely shut in the
coop at night. Security cameras, lights and baby monitors are also highly recommended deterrents.
PROVIDING GOOD CARE
FOOD / WATER
Fresh food and water are required daily and should be available at all times. Hay, grain and prepared
feed should be fresh —less than one year old and free of mold, insects or other contaminants. Daily
intake should include: 60 % nutritionally balanced, prepared feed appropriatefor the age of bird, 20%
scratch (cracked corn, oats, black oil sunflower seeds, milo, barley) 20% fresh (nutritious foods and table
scraps — caution, toxic: onion, avocados, chocolate). Supplements: oyster shell or limestone for calcium,
granite grit for digestion, mineral salt or ground salt licks. Chickens drink 1 -2 cups of water a day.
hito // www.¢ rittonclouse .com /chickenrunrescue/ Page 7 2/15 /107
-392-
Feed should be stored inside rodent -proof containers in a cool, dry area inaccessible to animals. Stored
feedbags should be rotated to ensure that feed is always fresh. Food that is uneaten or spilled should be
removed from animal enclosures daily.
SOCIAL NEEDS
Temperament and social structures of animals should be taken into account, and separate areas should
be provided for incompatible birds.
VET CARE
Locate a veterinary clinic nearby that will see chickens before one is needed — preferably one that
specializes in avian care. Chickens are welcome in increasing numbers of city clinics. Check vet
backgrounds at htt o Wwww.vetmed. state mn us /Default aspx ?ta bid =803.
Have an isolation area or roomy carrier and heating pad for sick or injured birds. Critical /emergency first
aid supplies should be kept, including roll gauze, gauze pads, tape, vet wrap, blood -stop powder,
antibiotic ointment, antibacterial scrub and solution, and bandage scissors.
SANITATION
Manure and wet bedding should be removed from the coop and animal feeding and lounging areas daily.
Thorough, complete cleaning of walls and perches, removal of all bedding, and disinfecting of the coop
and furnishings should be done at least once a year. Keeping shelter areas clean and dry will help
prevent bacteria, fungi, insects, rodents, etc. Rodent levels will be minimized by keeping all feed in
rodent -proof containers and removing spilled or uneaten food promptly. Litter can be double bagged and
disposed of as solid waste or composted, but composting must be done in an area where chickens will
not scratch for at least a year.
Housing animals in spacious, clean and relatively dust -free environments will keep them healthy and will
minimize human exposure to infectious disease.

REQUIREMENTS FOR KEEPING CHICKENS
The Permit for keeping chickens and other domestic fowl is contingent on your meeting responsibilities
to your neighbors and the birds. Our department so often sees animals in inappropriate settings. Before
going further, please read the enclosed CHICKEN CARE SHEET. Consider the commitment needed with
regard to the lifespan, cost, time, space , location, and other consequences of caring for chickens. Next,
consider the kind of impact they may have on your neighborhood. You must provide sufficient control so
that their presence will not disturb neighbors with property damage, activity, noise, odor or trespass.
You must keep your property clean and maintained in a manner that prevents insect and rodent
infestations. Finally, consider the birds themselves. Are you willing to assume a long term commitment
to them? They must be provided with food, water shelter and veterinary care. They also need kindness
and personal attention,

Poultry diseases and transmission to humans
The main diseases of concern include salmonellosis, campylobacteriosis,
chlamydophilosis (also known as psittacosis), and avian influenza. Illness
associated with salmonella and campylobacter is typically the result of eating
1.0 C I(e, �oil 117e
contaminated food which has been improperly cooked or prepared. Salmonella
S1 Pold Col„n,x,
and Campylobacter can exist in the gut of the bird and hence contact with the
fecal material is a concern; however, neither is present in the gut of most
poultry. There are sporadic reports of children contracting Salmonella by
handling baby chicks. People, especially children should wash their hands
before and after handling poultry to prevent transmission in either direction.
Chlamydophilosis or psittacosis is rarely diagnosed in domestic poultry, usually
turkeys or pigeons, and is generally not a disease of chickens. Most cases of
Chlamydophila infection are diagnosed in psittacine bird (parrots, etc.) and only
on rare occasion. Contact with respiratory secretions or fecal material of sick
birds can spread the disease. Avian Influenza is a respiratory disease in birds
and there are many different subtypes of influenza virus. Most subtypes are not
transmitted to humans (zoonotic). One subtype, occurring in Europe and the Far
East, can be transmitted from birds to humans. This subtype has never been
diagnosed in the United States, but there are both national and state programs
to regularly monitor U.S. poultry and wild birds for the presence of this subtype.
Parasites of poultry must live on or inside birds to survive and do not infect
people. External parasites that can infest poultry are not infectious for people.
Common external parasites such as the northern fowl mite strictly live on birds
and are not infectious for people. Intestinal parasites, such as coccidia and
roundworms, can live in the digestive tract of poultry, but do not infect humans,
dogs or cats.
-395-
Nuisance concerns
These concerns include noise, manure, odor, and pests. For noise, male
(rooster) and female (hen) chickens vary in their vocalizations. Mature roosters
will crow while hens make a clucking noise. The clucking tends to be soft in
tone but the hens can have a loud call -alarm call if startled or threatened. These
calls occur over a short time period and end when the threat ends or is
identified. Typically there will be little vocalization during the night time hours
unless the birds are startled.
Odor can be associated with chicken manure if allowed to accumulate. A small
number of birds will not generate much manure and with periodic cleaning of
the coop this should not be an issue. The manure and bedding that is removed
can be used as a fertilizer in the fresh form or after composting. Because the
birds produce manure, there is the concern that flies will be attracted and
proliferate in the manure. Wet feed can also attract flies. Proper coop
management, maintaining dry bedding and removing soiled bedding and wet
feed from the coop should minimize the fly population in a small flock. Proper
coop management will also minimize potential problems with rodents such as
house mice and Norway rats. Larger pests /predators, such as foxes, raccoons,
and coyotes that already reside in urban areas may take an occasional chicken
but the small populations of poultry kept in any one area are unlikely to attract
and sustain any number of predators.

SUBJECT: Urban Agriculture Report Study — Chicken and Bee Keeping
Summary
At present, the regulations in the City Code do not allow for the keeping of chickens subject to
certain exceptions. Bee keeping is currently not addressed in the City Code. In recent years
urban agricultural activities have become more prevalent and the City has received inquiries
about allowing these activities. The Planning Commission identified the review of the City's
current regulations regarding chickens and bees on its 2013 work project list. Review of
community regulations and research and preliminary discussion took place at the October 15,
2013 Planning Commission meeting. It was decided to compile the information into a report
study that would be brought back to an upcoming meeting for formal consideration by the
Planning Commission. As was discussed at the December 3'd Planning Commission meeting,
Staff published and post a public notice in the December 28th edition of the Laker about the
Planning Commission's intent to discuss this issue at its January 7th meeting.

controlled by him except under the conditions prescribed by this Code, and then only
the some or lesser number of such animals kept or harbored upon such premises and
under the ownership of such land as 397 d on May 19, 1960.
As stated above, the regulations contained in Sec. 14 -2 includes a general prohibition of
animals in the City of Mound except under conditions prescribed by the Code. Sec. 14 -9
allows the keeping of animals that were in existence on May 19, 1960.
A full copy of Chapter 14 of the City Code (Animals) has been included as an attachment to this
study report.
Review of Community Regulations
Please see below table which includes overview of regulations from several communities
regarding the keeping of chickens including a brief summary of some of the requirements. It is
worth mentioning that chickens have been a discussion topic in several communities in the last
year including but not limited to Farmington, Mayer, Norwood Young America, Woodland and
Deephaven. Some of the communities have opted to adopt or amend regulations and
ordinances to allow the keeping of chickens while others are either in the process or may be
taking up the topic at a future date. Other communities are maintaining the status quo.

Bees
Current Code Regulations
Chapter 14 of the City Code (Animals) currently does not have regulations regarding bees.
Standard practice in Mound has been that if the City Code does not address a particular use
then it is not allowed.
Review of Community Regulations
Regulations for bees have also become of interest as part of the increased focus on urban
agriculture. While Minneapolis is often the most noted community for its regulations, there are
other communities that have regulations regarding bees. A summary of other communities'
regulations is provided in the table below. The attached Model Beekeeping Ordinance has also
been created by the Minnesota Hobby Beekeepers Association to provide a framework for
communities as they address the topic. Staff has found a few communities where all or part of
the model ordinance has been used, including Minneapolis and Stillwater.
In its review Staff found that the City of Minneapolis revised its ordinance in April of 2013. At
that time the City had 28 bee permits. The report accompanying the requested ordinance
revision noted that bees have a three mile forage distance. The purpose of the ordinance
revision was to allow the creation of rooftop hives and the relaxation of regulations for such
hives. The report notes that bees tend to fly upward and then quickly disperse so it was felt
that consent rules and flyway barriers were not needed for rooftop hives.

An article was put in the August — October 2013 City Contact newsletter about urban agriculture
activities including chickens and bees. Input was requested from residents regarding their
thoughts on chickens and bees including whether or not they should be allowed in Mound.
Provided below is a summary of responses received.

Department Comments
See below comments received from Staff regarding the current City regulations related to the
keeping of chickens and bees:
Kandis Hanson, City Manager
In 1960, the city council in office grandfathered farm animals in place at that time.
Since that time, the population of Mound has increased and being a densely
populated community, is not the environment for the harboring of farm or exotic animals. The
test is to imagine each household having their share of animals. Animals present sanitation
issues related to the manure produced, they attract vermin and they cause dogs to bark,
further disrupting the neighborhood. A person contesting this should be asked,
'How are you disposing of the feces ?'
Mike Wocken, Community Service Officer
There are many small lots in Mound's residential neighborhoods which creates the potential
for conflicts with neighboring properties including the creation of possible nuisance conditions.
Input on the matter was also requested from Orono Police Chief Correy Farniok who was also
provided a draft copy of the report. Members are advised that additional comments may be
forthcoming.
Discussion
e The Planning Commission, at its October 15, 2013 meeting, had preliminary discussion
about the City's animal regulations and bee keeping. The Commission also reviewed and
discussed the research information that had been compiled about urban agriculture
activities including information from the League of Minnesota Cities and regulations from
other communities. Some preliminary discussion took place about the existing regulations
and some members discussed leaving the regulations the same but perhaps amending the
Code to include specific language for easier administration. It was discussed that the
preliminary research would be compiled into a study report and brought back to an
upcoming meeting.
As mentioned earlier in the report, Staff was contacted by several individuals regarding
their thoughts about whether or not the code should be changed to allow the keeping of
chickens. In advance of the January 7th meeting, Staff notified many of these individuals to
let them know that the matter would be discussed by the Planning Commission. It is
important to note, however, that contact information was not available for some of the
interested persons
-402-
However, if there is interest in permitting chickens and /or bees, Staff recommends a draft
ordinance and permit process be created and subsequently reviewed by the Planning
Commission which would address similar provisions as are found in other communities
such as:
o Chickens — maximum number of chicken, minimum setback requirements,
prohibition of roosters and slaughtering, minimum square footage of space per
chicken
Bees — setback requirements, density limits, educational requirements, and
notification or consent of neighbors.
-403-
• While Staff is supportive of sustainable practices including locally grown and raised
products, we have concerns about allowing chickens and bees. As shown in the table
below, Mound has relatively small lots resulting in a greater potential for urban agriculture
uses to have an impact on neighboring property. While urban agriculture uses may be
acceptable to some neighbors, others may find them incompatible and /or objectionable.

Staff Recommendation
Staffs recommendation is for continuation of the current regulations related to the
prohibition of chickens and to also prohibit bees. Therefore, amendments to clearly state
these regulations are recommended. Suggested modifications are as follows:
o Sec.14 -2. General prohibition.
No person shall keep any dog, cat horse, cattle, sheep, goat chicken /rooster,
bee or other animal in the city or permit such animal to be kept on premises
owned, occupied, or controlled by him except under the conditions prescribed by
this Code.
o Section 14 -9. Keeping of certain animals regulated.
No person shall keep or harbor any horses, pig, cattle, sheep, chickens /roosters,
er goats or bees in this city or permit the same to be done upon the premises
owned, occupied, or controlled by him except under the conditions prescribed
by this Code, and then only the same or lesser number of such animals kept or
harbored upon such premises and under the ownership of such land as existed
on May 19, 1960.
o Modifying Section 129 -2 to add the following definition as Gardening and
Horticulture Uses is listed as an accessory use in Section 129 -99 but is not
defined in Section 129 -2 as follows:
Gardening and Horticulture Uses means the keeping of a garden for the
cultivation propagation and processing of plants, flowers, vegetables,
herbs and fruits for household use only. The keeping of bees or other
animals such as pigs, chickens /roosters, or goats is not allowed.

or cry, cat to habitually or frequently cry or howl, to frequent school grounds, parks, or public
beaches, to chase vehicles, to molest or annoy any reasonable person away from the property of

MARIM
GUIDELINES FOR PRODUCTION
A variety of production and management programs can be used to raise egg-laying hens humanely.
All systems currently available can present challenges to animal welfare if good management
practices are not employed. Understanding the scientific basis for hen welfare and identifying
systems features that promote good welfare are as important to cage -free production as they are to
caged production. The UEP Cage -Free guidelines are science -based recommendations for keeping
laying hens humanely in cage -fi•ee systems. Please note that for the purpose of this document cage -
free refers to all floor, aviaries and systems with access to the outdoors.
Compared with research available concerning cage systems, relatively little research has been
conducted on.the welfare of modern hen strains in the wide variety of cage -free systems used in the
United States today. Many factors can affect bird welfare in cage -free indoor housing systems and
systems providing access to covered and open outdoor areas. Whereas new cage -free equipment is
appearing on the market at arapid rate, much of the published research on cage -free space allowances
dates back to a half - century ago or reflects small pen experiments. Nevertheless, reasonable
standards are necessary and these must be based on the best knowledge currently available. Future
adjustments will be needed in .light of new research findings.
The guidelines for cage -free production have been established for UEP Certified companies that
have all or at least some production in cage -free systems. Compliance with these guidelines is
required for a UEP Certified company that has cage -free production.
GruIDELINES FOR HENS IN CAGE -FREE SYSTEMS:
For the production of cage -free eggs, UEP guidelines are provided for 1) floor systems completed
bedded with litter; floor systems consisting of a combination of 2) litter and wire; or 3) litter and
slats; or 4) litter, wire, and slats; and 5) multi -tiers that utilize vertical space. With systems 2 -5, the
littered area should cover at least .15% of the useable floor area of the house (including the floor
area of tiers).
A house that is not completely filled on the original date of housing will be considered as an
incomplete flock and may accept additional pullets up to a maximum of 3 weeks later to complete
the filling of the house to the UEP Certified space allowance. Birds added after this period must be
segregated so that commingling of birds from multiple ages does not occur. Company records must
document when the layer house was originally supplied with pullets and \Oren additional pullets
were added.
no
-417-
A minimum of I.5 sq. ft. per hen must be allocated to allow normal behavior. In a house with
perching /roosting area over a droppings pit /belt, the minimum space can be 1.2 sq, ft. for Brown
Egg Layers and 1.0 sq. ft, for White Leghorns. In multi -tier systems with feeders and drinkers on
overhead perches /platforms, and in which the overhead perches /platforms provide sufficient space
for at Ieast 55% of the hens to perch, then a minimum of 1.0 sq. ft, of available space must be
provided.
Usable floor space consists of the combined litter and drop- through area including elevated tiers,
and covers over belts, but excludes nest space.
Please note that outdoor areas are not included as usable floor space.
Time Period for Implementation of Floor Space: All pullets hatched for cage -free layer houses
by April 1, 2008 will be allowed to determine eligible floor space per hen by measurements of the
total interior width by interior length of the house including that space that nest occupy. Beginning
with the following schedule, floor space will be counted by reducing the space occupied by nest as
follows:
Hatch I9ate Percentage of Nest Space Included
In Total House Floor Space
January 1, 20 10 75 %
January 1, 2011 50%
January 1, 2012 25%

The guidelines for feed and water must be fully implemented for all flocks hatched after April
1, 2008.
Diets for producing hens must be formulated and fed to promote good health and normal production.
To minimize the risk of bone fractures, hens in lay should be able to consume enough calcium and
phosphorus daily to support eggshell formation without loss of structural bone.
Guidelines for Feed:
1. Access to fresh feed must be,provided at all times. Feed n ust•not become stale, moldy,
rodent or insect infested, or contaminated with litter'or feces.
2. A minis ium of'1.5 linear inches of feed trough must be provided per hen when straight
trougbs are used (3 `inches perhen when only one side of the feeder is accessible) or 1.5
perimeter inches of circular feeder space when round pans are used.
5 Hens should not need to travel ,inore than ?6 feet within the house to reach feeders.
Clean, fresh water must be accessible at all times, except when water is shut off temporarily in
preparation for administration of vaccines or therapeutic medications in the water. Water must be
provided in quantities sufficient to promote normal hydration, health, and productivity. Water must
not become contaminated with litter or feces.
Drinkers should be designed to prevent water spillage.
Birds should be monitored closely for their ability to find and obtain water when first moved to the
layer house, especially if the type of watering device differs from that used previously by the birds.
Water cups should be filled manually for a few days (or even a few weeks) until the birds learn how
to operate the drinker. Birds need to learn to use watering devices that require them to press a lever
or other releasing mechanism. If birds are not familiar with these types of drinkers when they are
moved to the layer house, adjustments to the drinkers should be made as needed to ensure adequate
water intake. It is recommended that pullets be raised with the same type of drinker that will be
supplied in the layer house.
Water pressure must be carefully regulated when using automatic watering devices. Pressure
regulators and pressure meters should be located close to the level at which water is being delivered.
Water meters should be used to measure consumption. Manufacturer recommendations should be
used initially and adjusted if necessary to obtain optimal results.
Water being consumed by hens should be tested at least once per year to ensure the water is
potable.

The guidelines for nest space must be fully implemented for all flocks hatched after April 1,
2008.
Nest are provided in cage -free systems to facilitate egg collection, to minimize the risk of cloacal
cannibalism, and for food safety and sanitary reasons. Every effort should be made to avoid eggs
being laid outside nests. All eggs laid outside nests should be, gathered at least once daily. It is
permissible to use management tools (e.g, electric wire) to discourage eggs being laid near the
wall /outside nest.
Pullets should be transferred to the layer house before the onset of lay to give sufficient time for
birds to explore the house and find the nest prior to onset of lay. Pullets should be reared with
access to raised areas and perches from an early age to become adept at moving up and .down in
space. (Research indicates that access to perches by 4weeks of age reduces the risk of eggs being
laid on the floor during the laying period).
Nest should be draft-free and dark inside. Research indicates that lights in nest boxes increase
the risk of cannibalism. Nest should be constructed and maintained to protect hens from external
parasites and disease organisms. Nest should be closed to bird access at night and re- opened prior
to lay early in the morning.
Guidelines for Nest Space:
1. A minimum of 9 square feet of nest space per 100 hens must be provided.
2. Nest should be,provided with a suitable floor substrate (e.g.,.Astroturfor dimplod rubber
mtIts) that encourages nesting behavior. Nests with wire floors or plastic-coated wire
floors alone should be avoided. The provision of loose litter material in nests (e.g., fresh
straw) can be useful for training pullets to use nests.
3. Nest should be regularly inspectcd and cleaned as necessary to ensure that manure does
not accrun ulate.
n
-420-
For pullets hatched after January 1, 2010 all cage -free houses will be required to provide 6
inches of elevated perch space per hen at a minimum of 16 inches above the adjacent floor
space for 20% of the birds within the house. This timeline is established with recognition that
further research projects are needed to determine the benefits of perches and therefore may
change when research warrants a change.
Perches are designed to allow hens living in large flocks to roost comfortably with a minimum of
disturbance, to provide hens with a refuge from injurious pecking, and to minimize flightiness.
Hens should be able to wrap their toes around theperch and balance evenly on the perch in a relaxed
posture for an extended period. There should be sufficient space on either side of any perch to allow
hens to grip the perch without risk of trapping their claws.
Perches should be constructed of a material that does not harbor mites. Perch height should not be
greater than 3.3 feet above the adjacent floor to minimize the risk of bone fractures when landing off
perches. Sufficient space should be provided to allow birds to jump down from perches at an angle
no steeper than 45 degrees. When possible, perches should be placed over slats or manure belts to
avoid build -up of manure on the floor below.
G sidelines for Perches:

LITTER
For pullets hatched after January 1, 2010 all cage -free houses will be required to provide a minimum
15% of the total space for litter. Further research projects are needed as to the requirement for the
amount of litter space and may change when research warrants a change.
scratch areas covered with litter are provided for hens living in large flocks to reduce the risk of
feather pecking and cannibalism, and to minimize flightiness. Many types of litter can work in an
egg production system. The most important feature of keeping hens on litter is proper management
of litter condition. Litter entering the house should be fi•ee of visible mold or soiled areas. Litter
with stale or `off' odors should not be used.
Litter should be of adequate depth throughout the scratch area to insulate birds form direct contact
with the floor and to mix with the manure but not so deep as to encourage egg laying on the floor.
Litter should be removed and replaced with fresh litter between cycles.
If the scratch area provided does not allow for adequate claw wear, surfaces that hens scratch
with their claws when feeding should be covered with an abrasive material that helps to prevent
overgrown claws.
Litter should be provided during rearing ofpullets to minimize the risk of birds developing injurious
pecking behavior.
A ramp between the scratch area and the slats aids movement between these areas and may help to
reduce the risk of floor eggs, injurious pecking and bone fractures.

LIGHTING
Lighting should be brighter in the scratch area than elsewhere in the house to reduce the risk of eggs
being laid on the floor. Light intensity should be lowered gradually or in steps prior to lights going
out for the night to encourage bens to move up onto slats, tiers and perches and get settled for the
night. Natural light during dawn or dusk is adequate to meet this recommendation.
Housing should protect birds fi'orn exposure to anticipated adverse environmental conditions,
including excessive heat, cold, and precipitation. Bird movement and litter in cage -free systems
can result in higher concentrations of bacteria, fungi, internal and external parasites, noxious gases,
and dust in the air when compared with cage systems. Air quality can deteriorate rapidly when
the ventilation rate is reduced in winter to conserve heat. Good husbandry, appropriate house
construction, proper ventilation, and careful attention to sanitation are needed to ensure acceptable
temperature and air quality.
House temperature should be adjusted in a timely manner if bird behavior indicates that birds are
too hot (panting, sitting with wings held out) or too cold (huddling and ruffling of feathers).
Guidelines for Temperature and Air Quality:
1. Housing must allow, buds to maintain their normal body temperature without
difficulty:
2. Houses must be designed and operated so that a continuous flow offresh air is provided
for every bird. Sufficient ventilation must be maintained at all times to avoid excessive
concentrations of carbon monoxide, methane, ammonia, hydrogen sulfide and dust.
3. The ammonia concentration to which birds are exposed should ideally be less than 10
ppm and should rarely exceed 25 ppm.

MODEL BEEKEEPING ORDINANCE
prepared by the
Minnesota Hobby Beekeepers Association
This model ordinance is not intended to be adopted without legal review by counsel representing the
jurisdiction considering it. Like any proposed ordinance, it must be reconciled with existing ordinances
and may be revised to fit community standards and needs. Our purpose in advancing the model ordinance
is to offer a document with the apicultural framework we believe will enable hobbyist and sideliner
beekeepers to safely and successfully pursue this pleasurable and economically, culturally and
agriculturally critical activity in urban and suburban areas.
WHEREAS, honey bees (apis mellifera) are of benefit to mankind, and to Minnesota in
particular, by providing agriculture, fruit and garden pollination services and by
furnishing honey, and other useful products; and
WHEREAS, Minnesota is among the leading states in honey production and agricultural
by products associated with beekeeping throughout the United States; and
WHEREAS, domestic strains of honey bees have been selectively bred for desirable
traits, including gentleness, honey production, tendency not to swarm and non - aggressive
behavior, characteristics which are desirable to foster and maintain; and
WHEREAS, gentle strains of honey bees can be maintained within populated areas in
reasonable densities without causing a nuisance if the bees are properly located and
carefully managed;
NOW THEREFORE, be it ordained and enacted by
Section 1. Preamble Adopted.
That the findings contained in the preamble of this ordinance are hereby adopted as a part
of this ordinance.
Section 2. Definitions.
As used in this article, the following words and terms shall have the meanings ascribed in
this section unless the context of their usage indicates another usage.
2.1 "Apiary" means the assembly of one or more colonies of bees at a single
location.
2.2 "Beekeeper" means a person who owns or has charge of one or more
colonies of bees.
2.3 "Beekeeping equipment" means anything used in the operation of an
apiary, such as hive bodies, supers, frames, top and bottom boards and
extractors.

2.4 "Colony" means an aggregate of bees consisting principally of workers,
but having, when perfect, one queen and at times drones, brood, combs,
and honey.
2.5 "Hive" means the receptacle inhabited by a colony that is manufactured
for that purpose.
2.6 "Honey bee" means all life stages of the common domestic honey bee,
apis mellifera species.
17 "Lot" means a contiguous parcel of land under common ownership.
2.8 "Nucleus colony" means a small quantity of bees with a queen housed in a
smaller than usual hive box designed for a particular purpose.
2.9 "Undeveloped property" means any idle land that is not improved or
actually in the process of being improved with residential, commercial,
industrial, church, park, school or governmental facilities or other
structures or improvements intended for human occupancy and the
grounds maintained in associations therewith. The term shall be deemed
to include property developed exclusively as a street or highway or
property used for commercial agricultural purposes.
Section 3. Purpose of Ordinance.
3.1 The purpose of this ordinance is to establish certain requirements for
beekeeping within the City, to avoid issues which might otherwise be
associated with beekeeping in populated areas.
3.2 Compliance with this ordinance shall not be a defense to a proceeding
alleging that a given colony constitutes a nuisance, but such compliance
may be offered as evidence of the beekeeper's efforts to abate any proven
nuisance.
3.3 Compliance with this ordinance shall not be a defense to a proceeding
alleging that a given colony violates applicable ordinances regarding
public health, but such compliance may be offered as evidence of the
beekeeper's compliance with acceptable standards of practice among
hobby beekeepers in the State of Minnesota.
Section 4. Standards of Practice.
4,1 Honey bee colonies shall be kept in hives with removable frames, which
shall be kept in sound and usable condition.
4.2 Each beekeeper shall ensure that a convenient source of water is available
to the colony so long as colonies remain active outside of the hive.
4.3 Each beekeeper shall ensure that no wax comb or other material that might
encourage robbing by other bees are left upon the grounds of the apiary
Pot. Such materials once removed from the site shall be handled and
stored in sealed containers, or placed within a building or other insect -
proof container.
4.4 For each colony permitted to be maintained under this ordinance, there
may also be maintained upon the same apiary lot, one nucleus colony in a

hive structure not to exceed one standard 9 -5/8 inch depth 10 -frame hive
body with no supers.
4.5 Each beekeeper shall maintain his beekeeping equipment in good
condition, including keeping the hives painted if they have been painted
but are peeling or flaking, and securing unused equipment from weather,
potential theft or vandalism and occupancy by swarms. It shall not be a
defense to this ordinance that a beekeeper's unused equipment attracted a
swarm and that the beekeeper is not intentionally keeping bees.
Section 5 Colony Density.
5.1 Except as otherwise provided in this ordinance, in each instance where a
colony is kept less than 25 feet from a property line of the lot upon which
the apiary is located, as measured from the nearest point on the hive to the
property line, the beekeeper shall establish and maintain a flyway barrier
at least 6 feet in height. The flyway barrier may consist of a wall, fence,
dense vegetation or a combination there of, such that bees will fly over
rather than through the material to reach the colony. If a flyway barrier of
dense vegetation is used, the initial planting may be 4 feet in height, so
long as the vegetation normally reaches 6 feet in height or higher. The
flyway barrier must continue parallel to the apiary lot line for 10 feet in
either direction from the hive, or contain the hive or hives in an enclosure
at least 6 feet in height. A flyway barrier is not required if the property
adjoining the apiary lot line (1) is undeveloped, or (2) is zoned
agricultural, industrial or is outside of the City limits, or (3) is a wildlife
management area or naturalistic park land with no horse or foot trails
located within 25 feet of the apiary lot line.
5.2 No person is permitted to keep more than the following numbers of
colonies on any lot within the City, based upon the size or configuration of
the apiary lot:
a. One half acre or smaller lot 2 colonies
b. Larger than I/2 acre but smaller than 3/4 acre lot 4 colonies
c. Larger than 3/4 acre lot but smaller than 1 acre lot 6 colonies
d. One acre but smaller than 5 acres 8 colonies
e. Larger than 5 acres no restriction
5.3 Regardless of lot size, so long as all lots within a radius of at least 200 feet
from any hive, measured from any point on the front of the hive, remain
undeveloped, there shall be no limit to the number of colonies. No

Relationship Abuse — Recognizing and Ending Relationship Violence
Presenters: Carol Arthur, Executive Director of the Domestic Abuse Project; Helen

Panel Discussion: Chief Farniok, Orono Police Department; Chief Paul Falls, Minnetrista
Police Department; Superintendent Kevin Borg, Mound Westonka Schools.
A relationship that starts out happy and caring turns into one marked by fear, control and
violence. Abusive relationships can happen to anyone regardless of age, socio- economic
status, ethnicity, education, or gender. The one and only goal of the abuser is to gain and
maintain complete control of their partner. Abusers can and do harm their partner as
domination and threats escalate to verbal abuse and physical violence.
The goal of this forum is to educate the community about the realities of relationship
violence and the common warning signs, to provide critical resources, and to encourage a
community -wide commitment to identifying and ending such destructive behavior in our
midst.
