[QUOTE="Timmer, post: 1660560, member: 41381"] Check with your city, not just your county. I have 14 acres and my neighbors around me all have 20 acres or more. However, we are all in an area that is zoned Rural Residential, as opposed to just Rural. I had to go to my city and get an Interim Use Permit (IUP) in order to have farm animals. There were hoops to jump through and associated expenses. The application was $550. They dictated a lot. I had to have the infrastructure before they would issue the IUP. They inspected my pasture and fence. I had to have a 3 sided shelter so I had to build a loafing shed, and there is a limit of no more than 1 animal per 2 acres of pasture. We tried getting variances for the shelter and animal limit, but were denied. We explained we are doing annual beef cattle and that we wouldn't have them over the winter, and we would be supplementing their food. It didn't matter, those were the rules. [/QUOTE]
