There could be more debate about bees at Tuesday’s Springfield City Council Meeting.
An ordinance setting up municipal code regulating hobby beekeeping in Springfield was placed on the debate agenda for the upcoming city council meeting.
The ordinance states that beekeepers must comply with state regulations, which include registering their hives with the agriculture department.
It also regulates the number of hives beekeepers can have on their lot and how far away it must be from the property line.
