Beekeeping governed by MGL c. 128 Β§Β§32β36 (state apiary inspection program). Local Board of Health rules may restrict beekeeping in Revere's dense urban areas. No published Revere-specific beekeeping ordinance found.
Revere's zoning ordinance determines where beekeeping is permitted. All hives must be registered with the Massachusetts Department of Agricultural Resources under MGL c. 128 Sections 32-36. Massachusetts allows local regulation of beekeeping. Contact the planning department for specific zoning rules on beekeeping in your district. Revere's coastal environment and proximity to parks and gardens make it suitable for urban beekeeping where zoning allows.
Unregistered hives violate state apiary requirements. Local zoning violations subject to code enforcement.
