Sunset Planning Commission votes to forward chicken-keeping ordinance to City Council
Summary
The Planning Commission voted to recommend Ordinance 2026-01, an amendment to Sunset City Code chapter 10-5a-7 on chickens in single-family residential zones, to the City Council for its public hearing; the transcript records two ayes and one abstention.
The Sunset Planning Commission voted April 9 to recommend Ordinance 2026-01 — an amendment to Sunset City Code chapter 10-5a-7 governing chickens in single-family residential zones — to the City Council for its public hearing.
The move followed the commission's opening of a public hearing on the ordinance, which produced no public comments. Chair opened the hearing and, after confirming there were no speakers from the public, the commission closed the hearing and moved to forward the ordinance as written.
Commission discussion focused on procedural readiness rather than policy changes; commissioners confirmed the draft incorporated prior edits staff circulated earlier in the week. The transcript records the motion carried with two members voting in favor and one abstention recorded in the discussion.
The commission did not record an extended debate on the ordinance itself and did not receive public testimony at the meeting; the City Council will consider the ordinance at a later public hearing.
The meeting adjourned at 7:21 p.m.
