Backyard Hens Licence Application

Champlain Township Logo

The Township of Champlain adopted a by-law to initiate a pilot program for backyard hens. This new pilot program will allow as many as four hens in residential yards in village areas of L’Orignal and Vankleek Hill, and rural residential areas of West Hawkesbury and Longueuil under certain conditions. Please make sure to read through all the information and requirements before submitting an application for a licence.

Prior to purchasing or installing any hens on a residential property, an application must be filed by the landowner before the licence is issued. Certain criteria must be met before obtaining a licence. The Township application contains pertinent information that will assist the applicant to determine whether they are ready to apply for a licence.
The backyard hen licence is issued for a period of up to 18 consecutive months.
