A new ordinance passed on December 3, 2013 links the number of pets allowed per home to lot size.
Most homes would be subject to a four-pet limit according to the ordinance.
Homes on 25,000 square foot lots or larger, including those in the rural resource conservation zone (R25), would be allowed six pets.
Homeowners with 5,000 square foot lots would be allowed to keep two pets on their property.
