No Go For Goats In Lake City

Item: No go for the goats: General Services Committee won't let animals in city/Tom Hasslinger, Coeur d'Alene Press

More Info: Coeur d'Alene won't tweak its animal ordinance to allow urbanites to own goats. Allowing the notorious munchers inside city limits opens the door to what other animals could follow in their hoof steps, the General Services Committee decided Monday. "I'm just not ready to be that guy," said Steve Adams, on being the city councilman who voted in favor of allowing the animal. "In my view they're farm animals, so where do you draw the line?"

Question: Should the city of Coeur d'Alene allow goats in town?
