The Palatine Village Council voted 4-2 in favor of allowing petitioner Steven Brosio to house six hens in a chicken coop on his 1.8 acres of property.
The Palatine Village Council Monday approved a permit to allow resident Steven Brosio to have a chicken coop and house six hens, on his 1.8 acres of property at 624 W. Hill Road. The issue has been in question in Palatine since it was first proposed in the spring of 2012. In early January, Brosio received unanimous approval from the Zoning Board of Appeals relating to his request. Three Palatine residents, and two individuals who live nearby to Brosio in unincorporated Cook County spoke in favor of his petition at the village council meeting Monday. Brosio sought an Accessory Unique Use Permit to allow the hens and the chicken coop on his property. None of the 19 individuals [from 11 households] who previously signed a petition against …

The Palatine village council unanimously voted against allowing a chicken coop in the backyard at a residence in the 500 block of Daniels Road. The petitioners are now considering litigation against the village for violation of due process.
The tone was slighly contentious at the village council meeting Monday night, as resident Vanessa Barsati attempted to plead her case so she could install a chicken coop in her backyard at 511 Daniels Road.

The concerns expressed by resident Ann Harrison, who resides in the 300 block of Elm Street near Daniels Road, included increased noise from chickens, fears they would attract predatory animals and negatively affecting property values in the neighborhood. Barsanti said Harrison refused to speak with her about her her concerns to try and find a resolution. "If…

The Village of Palatine will consider granting a special use permit at its meeting tonight for a backyard chicken coop at a residence in the 500 block of Daniels Road.
The Village of Palatine has backyard chicken coops back on the table at its meeting tonight. This issue was first brought forth in March of this year by Palatine residents Vanessa and Jason Barsanti, who live in a home on a half acre of land at 511 Daniels Road. Vanessa Barsanti said publically that organically grown food is healthier. Other benefits she cited are natural insect control since hens eat grubs and earwigs. The couple authored a proposed amendment to Palatine's zoning code that would allow people to "harbor, keep or raise" female chickens, and that hens be kept "within a pen, coop, building or other enclosure sufficient in size and strength to confine such animals to the owner's property." There appeared to momentum on the …
