On Monday, March 13th the Enid City Marshall offered clarification in regard to the recent chicken ordinance that allows certain citizens to own up to 6 hens if they meet the right qualifications. Those wanting to legally own hens within city limits must live in an agricultural zone or have a waiver.
The fine for owning chickens in a nonagricultural zone is up to 260$ while the fine for having a rooster is 560$. In the post, the city Marshall also said ” The wavier is free, the application packet can be picked up at the Enid Administration building located at 401 W. Garriott, or a link is provided below to print off your application, you can contact the City Marshal at 580-402-5721 if you have any questions”.
