Chickens are not allowed anywhere in the City of Ithaca. From the

Thanks Jon! That question was on my list too. Unfortunately it is just oneof
many, many changes that are needed in the City Code to encourage anythingclose
to sustainability.The Town of Ithaca zoning can also use some reform. While
chickens, ducksand other domestic animals are permitted in the Moderate Density
Residentialzones where most people live, you would need a minimum of two acres
and aSpecial Permit. That pretty much precludes the oppotunity.They are
prohibited in the High Density Residential and in Multi-FamilyResidential
districts. George Frantz
