| Hello,
Just to let you know, On January 25, 05 the Tehama County Board of Supervisors unanimously approved the following Ordinance:
Rezone #04-10, (PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION #04-2) To consider amending Chapter 17.08, General Provision and Exceptions, Section 17.08.010, Additional Uses Permitted of the Tehama County Zoning Code; adding Subsection {I}, Pot-Bellied Pigs as follows:
I. Pot-Bellied Pigs.
As an accessory use to a detached single-family dwelling in a RE; Residential Estates Zoning District and an R-1; One-Family Residential Zoning District, no more than five Vietnamese pot-bellied pigs {sus scrofa} may be kept or harbored as a pet. In combination with dogs, no more than five animals may be kept, provided:
The Animals are regularly housed indoors, and when outdoors, are restrained by leash or within a durable fenced enclosure area, and
Pot-Bellied Pigs over the age of four (4) months shall be neutered or spayed. Exemption for neutering or spaying will be considered by the County of Tehama Animal Control Department when presented with evidence authored by a veterinarian stating procedure would be detrimental to the health of the animal; and
The owner has obtained a license issued by the County of Tehama Animal Control Department for the Pot-Bellied Pig, which shall be issued only after proof of neutering or spraying has been provided. The licensure fee shall be equivalent to the dog licensure fee; and
Tusks shall be regularly trimmed so as not to exceed one inch in length outside the outer lip.
According to the Planning Director the above goes into law after 30 days providing the are no law suites but he was very reassuring that there were no further hurdles to get over! He then congratulated us on the good job.
I would like to thank you for your help.
Regards,
The Wood Family
