A family in Ukiah will get to keep their goats following a decision by the City Council. A permit had been granted to the family who back in December requested it to keep two goats on their property within the city limits. City staff visited where the goats lived and determined the animals would not create a hazard to public health or safety, and did not constitute a public or private nuisance, or otherwise seriously and injuriously affect living conditions or property values in adjacent or neighboring properties. That decision was appealed by a neighbor, which was denied during a hearing last week where the mayor encouraged the neighbors to work it out.
