I wonder what the zoning laws are in that area.

My town (suburban NJ) requires that you have at least a 5 acre plot to keep chickens. Mainly, I suspect, because someone on the zoning or planning boards was pissed off back in the 80's that their neighbor had chickens. There's very, very few properties in town that are 5 acres. I have to wonder if the person who was pissing the board member off back in the day happened to have 4.5 acres of land.

Since it's the Naval Observatory and federal property, I'm not sure that applies.
