MI: City council won’t let little girl have pony

“There won’t be any galloping or neighing in Natalie Linders’ back yard. The Arden Hills City Council voted unanimously on Monday night to deny the 10-year-old city resident’s request to classify miniature horses as domestic animals so she could keep one in her yard. Natalie began her campaign to change the city’s zoning code about a month ago after city planner James Lenhoff told her that miniature horses were farm animals. That classification requires more space than the Linders’ one-third acre yard would allow.” (09/25/07)
