8.19.010 - Purpose.

Miniature pot-bellied pigs are increasing in popularity as domesticated pets and the keeping of not more than two such animals on any single family residentially zoned property, excluding the RA-5 and RC zones, is permitted in the City. However, as such animals are still livestock notwithstanding size, the keeping of such animal needs to be closely regulated and controlled to insure that such animal does not become a nuisance or danger to the general public and the neighborhood in which it is kept. The City Council finds that the keeping of pot-bellied pigs so as not to create a nuisance can be reasonably accommodated by licensing and other restrictions.
