I don’t know. Maybe this applicant should have tried out for ABC’s The Golden Bachelor and she would not be a rooster mommy wishing to create a fake farm?
Before we begin I will note that this is a public issue and that notice is publicly visible and posted.
Crazy fowl issues once again roosting in Willistown Township.
As you know, I am in favor of legitimate agricultural zones and farms and uses. This is under 3 acres. It’s on a very residential street and my opinion is it’s BS. Also in my humble opinion the only reason this is going to zoning for a mythical agricultural use is because she wants to keep a rooster, although now it draws attention to the entire menagerie.
(And all her buddies can roll up here and tell me what a terrible person I am, but it doesn’t change my opinion, which I am allowed to have.)
I have gone out of my way to not really post photos of the shantytown shed arrangement on this property. It was definitely designed by Fred Sanford for the Clampetts. That is part of what makes this laughable. I will note this applicant was handing out hand outs when this went to the Magisterial District Justice not so long ago which was public, so now the hand outs are too, right? Comforters as rooster baffles really?
I’ve also seen a recent email exchange between this person and someone they had problems with regarding roosters last time. And if you disagrees with this woman with this notice, you’re a bad bad person? Well, I don’t need a Christmas card from her and I don’t need a cocktail as part of the follow car circuit for Radnor Hunt so I must be extra bad right?
(Newsflash I love watching the Radnor Hunt go by and the other Hunt clubs that still exist in Chester County. I think they’re marvelous)
Back to what constitutes a farm and farm animals. So this woman doesn’t live on a farm doesn’t have a farm but wants to have a farm, do I have this right?
So that means she wants to legitimize the rooster, all the chickens, the numerous goats including intact billy goats plus the two donkeys that I really don’t think are grandfathered or whatever?

People will often fill up empty places in their lives with animals. That’s part of the human condition. No judging there.
Sadly every single time something comes up about roostergate In Willistown, it’s like neighbors on this street are being punished doesn’t it?
And once again, I reiterate, this is not the only rooster issue in Willistown at all which is why Willistown needs an ordinance. Eventually, these issues with roosters are going to detrimentally affect responsible backyard chickens owners, and I don’t think that’s fair.

Here go ahead now- those of you who are going to attack me, attack me now get it out of your system. This is now a very PUBLIC issue with a PUBLIC notice so you can go down a PUBLIC street and see for yourselves. (CLICK HERE for link on Willistown website.)

What is the actual agricultural use? Selling goats and chickens live as a breeding operation? Or selling goats milk or goat meat, or butchered, chickens, or eggs?
Putting on a pair of cute overalls doesn’t make you a farmer, does it? So having a collection of dumpy sheds on a suburban NOT country street and a menagerie of farm animals doesn’t mean you are a farmer or have a farm either, does it ?

Grab your popcorn Chester County. This is going to be amusing. And it starts with Willistown Planning Commission 10/4/23, Zoning 10/25/23 and if there is enough of a wailing wall like the applicant bought to court recently, there is another potential Planning Commission date of 10/18/23.
