The Village Board approved a restricted-species permit for Kristen and Jessica Zabrowski to keep six chickens at 108 Lindenwood Drive, contingent on the homeowners association approving the proposed structure and aesthetics.
The applicants said the chickens are for their daughter, who joined 4‑H, and that the building inspector had reviewed and signed off on the location and structure. An applicant said the HOA review focused on details such as paint color and trim; staff clarified the village’s approval would be limited to zoning and building requirements and would not override any HOA restrictions.
A trustee moved to approve the permit with the stated contingency that the HOA provide its approval; the motion passed unanimously.
Staff noted the applicants did not yet own the birds and said village approval would allow the applicants to proceed with building-permit and HOA processes. The board recorded no additional conditions beyond the HOA contingency.
