Fellow Winter Park Residents, Please share with friends and neighbors. Comment here. Click here to send an email to the commission letting them know if you want your neighbors to have chickens in their yard, or not. Last Wednesday commissioners DeCiccio, Weaver, and Sullivan voted for a chicken ordinance that will legalize your neighbor having a 7-foot-tall chicken coop in their rear or side yard with up to four chickens. Leary and Cooper voted no. The initial ordinance was amended so that approval of neighbors is not required to receive a chicken coop permit. The ordinance will sunset 24 months from adoption and allows up to 25 permits. They vote again on September 9th.

(407) 267-5320 Post Script #1 – DeCiccio, Weaver, and Sullivan also voted to have city staff draft an ordinance for a March referendum on changing Winter Park from at-large to single member district voting. Staff’s count of those speaking in support of this ordinance was 7, of whom 3 did not live in Winter Park. Leary and Cooper voted no. Post Script#2 – Your emails, signs, and calls on the voted tax increase seem to be having an impact. There is a vote on September 9th and the final millage rate vote is on September 23rd.
