A topic that has strong opinions on both sides will be up for a vote of the Forsyth Board of Aldermen in September.
The vote will be if residents can be allowed to own and raise chickens within the city limits. This item has been discussed for several years and was discussed at length at the Forsyth Alderman meeting last week.
Residents argued the pros and cons of being allowed to raise a certain number of chickens with those in favor saying they would like have the ability to have that as a compliment for providing food with opponents concerned among other things about waste and animal nuisance calls.
The vote next month will be a First Reading to allow a certain amount of Chickens in the City Limits. The ordinance will need to be approved in two readings to become Law.
A recap of last week's meeting by AJ Fahr can be read on the Branson Tri-Lakes News Website.
