The City Council on Tuesday passed an ordinance that—with few exceptions—allows only one rooster per property. It was spurred by complaints over noise and hygiene and concerns over illegal cockfighting.Janice Hahn, who authored the bill, says it will give residents of her district some peace and quiet.
Neighborhoods from the harbor to the San Fernando Valley are sometimes annoyed by concerts from crowing roosters. Real estate developer Michael Mekeel says tenants of his Panorama City development have had to turn up their TVs and wear earplugs.The law takes effect in November and carries fines of up to $250.

Sanctuary City policies ruffle my feathers.
This comment is not really about this post but about your site in general. I am a like minded individual and stumbling on your site today made me laugh quite a bit. I just started my site a week and a half ago and it is named www.itdontmakesense.com. I honestly had never seen or knew of your site prior. I am wondering if you are interested in the domain name as you have acually beat me to the punch. I will gladly give it over to you free of charge (I got it for only a year) as I could not honestly sleep well at night knowing you have something far better than what I could do as far as content is concerned. I could not find any way on this site to contact you. I can be reached at rushter at cox dot net.
Free - no questions. Say the word.
"rushter at cox dot net" .... after a post like this? Man, what is the world coming to?
I don't know, Nick. I think I know where all your traffic is going.
About this rooster ordinance, personally, I think it's unconstitutional. Livestock should be directly proportional to family and hired hands living on the property.
I'm working very hard to resist making any funny punnies.
Kid, you might say that California's chickens are comi... never mind.
Soloman, I'm happy the irony slapped you in the noggin.
Scott and Emi, thanks for the offer. You're very kind. I'm quite fond of this URL. October will mark by 32nd year of blogging here at this old fruit stand, and I can't imagine lugging all those cardboard boxes full of fonts and puns over to new digs.
The ITDONTMAKESENSE.COM might be quite an attractive address for the Republican National Committee. It fits them perfectly.
"I think it's unconstitutional. Livestock should be directly proportional to family and hired hands living on the property."
That should also be the policy for illegals.
Opie, When has that ever stopped you before?
I wouldn't be so cocksure, Nick.
I understand that Philly has a similar ordinance, but for dogs.
You know, it does make sense. You should try living in a trailer park (like me) where every body has 4-5 of those bad boys. Mornings are hell.
What happened to amnesty for all? The poor chickes' feathers have been ruffled now. If the politiicians think that this law is going to stop cockfighting then they really are stupid. In L.A. there must be lots of good morning wake up calls.
Scott & Emi:
Don't make deals with Goomba, or offer him anything for nothing. It's a sign of weakness, and he can smell that a mile away. He learned it after years of corn dog hustling on Rodeo Drive.
CA banana republic governance. Welcome home Mexico, you can have L.A., you have already taken it over.
"it will give residents of her district some peace and quiet."
She's obviously never been around any roosters. One per city lot or 10 per city lot, in my experience you'd be hard pressed to tell the difference based on noise.
What happened to two chickens in every pot?
