For small livestock and household pets, the maximum height of an enclosure shall be six feet, except for beehives. For beehives, the maximum height shall be limited to four feet. A greater height may be permitted based on consideration of special characteristics of the lot, including, but not limited to, topography, lot size, and building placement, and subject to approval of the Planning Director. (6) Minimum Setback Requirements. All barns, stables, and other structures used for the housing of animals, except for household pets, on any lot shall be located not less than 20 feet from any property line and not less than 40 feet from any dwelling on the same or adjoining lot. Beehives and all structures for the housing of household pets, including chicken coops, shall be located not less than 5 feet from any property line and not less than 6 feet from any dwelling on the same or adjoining lot.

All areas containing livestock or other animals shall be enclosed by fences which are good, strong, substantial, and sufficient to prevent the ingress and egress of livestock or other animals. Such fences shall be designed and const ructed of appropriate materials and be of an adequate height so as to control and contain such animals at all times, while avoiding injury to such animals, preventing such animals from reaching across any property lines, and of a design that does not detract from the appearance of the site or surrounding area. Where bees are proposed to be kept, a solid fence of at least six feet in height shall be erected along all property lines within ten feet of the hive. Hives shall not be located in areas where this r equirement cannot be met due to height limitations for fences.
(8) Maintenance of Livestock and Other Animals.

Composting or similar treatments may be permissible if performed to appropriate standards so as not to constitute a nuisance, as determined by Planning Director. (b) Watering troughs must be so constructed and located that they do not overflow excessively in the stall, corral or paddock area, as to promote mosquito larvae growth. (c) Hay must be stored in such a manner so as not to become a nesting place for rodents, i.e., stored in rodent-proof buildings or off the floor and away from walls, other material or equipment.

(9) Livestock as a Legal, Nonconforming Use. Livestock existing as a legal, nonconforming use may continue indefinitely as long as (1) the livestock have existed continuously in that six months have not passed when there were no livestock on the site, (2) the maximum number of livestock established as a nonconforming use is not increased, and (3) as long as there is no intensification of livestock, e.g., legal, nonconforming medium livestock may not be intensified by replacing them with large livestock. The burden of proof for establishing the legal, nonconforming status of livestock rests with the property owner subject to the endorsement of the Planning Director. (10) Permit Required. As provided in the Zoning Ordinance, a Zoning Conformance Permit is required prior to the establishment of household pets or apiaries as a secondary use. This requirement shall be waived for household pets where the enclosure is located at least forty feet from any residence, and for apiaries where the hives are located at least one hundred feet from any residence. An application for a Zoning Conformance Permit shall be reviewed by the Planning Director or their designee and shall be approved if all of the standards of this section are met.

An application for a Zoning Conformance Permit shall be submitted on a self-certification form, wherein an applicant shall acknowledge with their signature or initials that they understand the requirements of the Hayward Municipal Code with respect to the maintenance and management of the animals that are proposed.
Where the City determines that compliance with such standards is impossible given the characteristics of the site where the animals are kept, then the permit shall be deemed null and void.
(b) Apiaries: An application for a Zoning Conformance Permit for beekeeping shall require noticing of all property owners within one hundred feet of the property where the bees are proposed to be kept. Such notice shall be mailed within five business days of receipt of such application. If the City receives notification and documentation acceptable to the Planning Director (such as a doctor's note) that an individual who is allergic to bees resides within one hundred feet of the property where bees are proposed, the application shall be denied. Such notification and documentation may be received from any person who received an official notice from the City or from any person who can establish that they reside within one hundred feet of the property where bees are proposed to be kept. If no notification is received within thirty calendar days of the mailing of the official notice, and if the application meets all other city design criteria, the permit shall be issued. g.
