HOLLYWOOD - On one side of the battle in upscale Emerald Hills is a Middle Eastern Jewish family who claims code enforcement is targeting their community for harassment. On the other, there’s a city still reeling from an expensive religious discrimination lawsuit.
In the middle, is Onyx the hen and her gaggle.
The Orthodox Jewish Kohn family, citing the city code, calls them legal “small domestic” kosher pets; the city calls them illegal “fowl or poultry.”
