Fox Lake scratches owning chickens
FOX LAKE – Fox Lake is the latest in a series of area communities to say “no” to chickens.
The Fox Lake Village Board in a 4-2 decision voted down a proposed ordinance that would have allowed residents living on plots zoned single-family residential to raise chickens if they obtained a permit.
People on less than an acre would have been allowed a maximum of four hens, and those on larger lots could have had eight.
