Chicken Bylaw passed by County Council
Clearwater County Council has given second and third readings to a bylaw that authorizes chickens in the county’s hamlets.
The bylaw states that landowners would have to obtain a bi-annual chicken license, would be allowed a maximum of six chickens at any given time, and no roosters allowed.
Other than the hamlets of Withrow, Alhambra, Condor and Leslieville, Country Residential properties east of Range Road 9, are also allowed to possess chickens.
Nordegg was left out of the bylaw due to predatory reasons.
