Shenandoah's Zoning Ordinance (Chapter 102) restricts certain land uses including animal husbandry in residential zones. Livestock and poultry are generally not permitted in residential zoning districts in Texas cities, and Shenandoah's commercial-oriented land use pattern makes livestock even more restricted.
