A local school will be able to have 4 goats on the premises following action Monday night by the Fishers City Council.  Riverside Intermediate School will house and care for the goats on school property, but needed an exemption from city ordinances.

Last month, Councilman Pete Peterson was concerned about the ordinance change proposed because he had concerns about what unintended consequences could follow.  The exemption from the animal control ordinance approved Monday night was specific to the plans at Riverside.
