Goals & Achievements
The Horse Task Force is charged with the responsibility of reviewing ordinances regulating the keeping of horses and other large domesticated animals in Homer Glen. Consistent with the Mission and Core Values of Homer Glen, the Task Force searched for safe, reasonable rules that promote large lots that can accommodate the care of horses. After thorough review of existing requirements and research of other governmental body regulations, the Task Force made ordinance recommendations that enable the keeping of horses without detrimental effects to adjoining properties. The recommendations were incorporated into the updated Zoning Ordinance.
