Because if they go to the Humane Society, they have to do a blood test and they end up having to stay
there for a number of weeks. So if you have chickens and you find a rooster, feel free to reach out to me, |
can send it to you directly but it is on the Community Development Web Site and it has a list of various
sanctuaries that you can bring your rooster to. Thank you.

No | just wanted to wrap it up and see if the pleasure of the Board, if we send it to Committee what
Committee it would go to and if we need a formal motion from me to do that?

Ok and to that idea | would like to offer to, there are letters that were not included in the public comment.
And | wonder if | could have 5 minutes to read one of them?
President Wilshire
That’s up to the Board? | mean if we start reading one, do we read all 50? Do we read 5, do we read 6, |
mean where do we cut the line?

Right so if | could continue. So in other words, if an Alderman wanted to get rid of this in the future, they
could bring forward legislation to get rid of it?

Alderwoman Lu
Thank you. Through you to Corporation Counsel, is that correct, that this is not going to be a new,
codified Ordinance but rather a — (audio cuts out) understood what these, what the phrasing at the bottom
of these COVID-19 Ordinances does. So if you could just clarify that for me?

Can you hear me better now?
President Wilshire
Yes.
Alderwoman Lu
| went to a different part of my house. It seems to me though there isn’t an end date on that Ordinance, am
| wrong on that? OH ok, my mistake. Well it is not being codified, correct. So why don’t we just take the
end date out and when COVID-19 emergency measures get removed then we will have to reconsider if
necessary.

| would say very likely, it’s hard to speculate without knowing the exact change, but anything very
substantive | think would require another Public Hearing.
Alderman Jette
OK, thank you.

But again, they can come back with a recommendation to not make it permanent just do it for this year
and readdress it later. So if we do it now, it is a saving step as far as time is concerned and the season is
moving really quickly. In New England we don’t have long summers.
