The Village of Richland Council on May 11 voted to delete the village’s chicken ordinance so the local code aligns with State of Michigan laws.
President Pro‑Temp Gail Koporetz and Trustee Jason Mechenbier moved the ordinance deletion; the motion carried on a roll-call vote with Yes votes recorded from Koporetz, Riddle, Mechenbier and Greve and no votes recorded. The minutes do not include text of the prior ordinance or describe changes beyond alignment with state law.
Separately, the council reviewed a quote from Tony at BNR for a sign and tabled further discussion until Trustee Kim Lewis can attend the June meeting.
The council handled the other routine agenda items that night, including approval of the agenda, amended minutes and bills payable.
