The Chesterton Town
Council will meet at 7 p.m. Monday at the town hall.
At that meeting
members are scheduled to consider, on final reading, an ordinance which
would permit the owners of property of less than one-half acre in area to
keep not more than four hens. That ordinance would also forbid roosters; and
require the hens to be kept in a securely enclosed rear yard, in a coop with
a minimum area of 10 square feet per chicken.
The council
unanimously approved the ordinance on first reading at its last meeting.
In other business,
members will probably adopt the 2015 Salary Ordinance; make next year’s
board appointments; and approve the 2015 holiday schedule.
Redevelopment
Commission
Earlier in the
evening, at 6:30 p.m., the Redevelopment Commission will hold its regular
monthly meeting.
Members are
scheduled to hear a report from Member Jim Ton on the activities of the
Northwestern Indiana Regional Planning Commission.
