The City of Cleveland adopted a collection of ordinances to enable and facilitate urban agriculture in support of community health, sustainability, and local economies. The Urban Garden District was established as part of the zoning code (Ord. No. 208-07, passed 3-5-07) to protect areas designated for local food production, community education, garden-related job training, and environmental enhancement. Additional measures include a zoning update permitting the keeping of chickens, bees, and other livestock in all zoning districts; a licensing policy administered through the Cleveland Department of Public Health; amendments allowing farm stands and agriculture as a principal use on vacant lots in residential districts; and a clarification of the permitting process for high tunnels and hoop houses issued by the Department of Building and Housing in December 2012. An Urban Agriculture Overlay District (draft) was introduced to Cleveland City Council to allow more intensive urban agriculture uses in designated areas and remains pending.
