You heard me... as of Oct 1st no breeding will be allowed in any residential zone, which is most of Hillsborough County. This is what happens when we don't pay attention. And btw... in addition to not being able to sell any animal, you will also not be able to sell any animal cage (ie crate) food or accessories.

W.Taft Member GSDCA Member Sawnee Mtn Kennel Club GA Director RDOES. -----Original Message----- Hillsborough County changed their zoning codes effective October 1, 2008. http://www.hillsboroughcounty.org/pgm/zoning/codes/2008/rd1adopted2008 .pdf The above link will take you to the newly adopted land use codes for Hillsborough County. To save to time, the animal related portions are: Page 11, LDC Section 6.11.13 Animals Page 76, LDC Section 12.01.00 Kennels, Rescues and Non Profits B. In Residential Districts 1. No animal, other than household animals as defined in this Code, shall be kept in any residential zoning district, except that exotic animals may be kept for personal enjoyment with appropriate license/permit from the State of Florida. 12. No animals shall be raised or kept in the any residential zoning district for the purpose of sale to another party. This would eliminate any breeding or selling of any domestic animals or exotic animals from your home if you live in a residential zoning as most people do. __._,_.___ . __,_._,___ ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2008.
