zoning is still necessary, you don't want a pig farm (or anything equally stinky) next to people's houses.

No, individual assessment can fix that.

Just change default NO to default YES, BUT..

I wouldn’t mind an indoor farm, if they come up with some system to control the smell.

I don’t think there should be any restriction on what people can build.

You could have a rule on bad smell, that applies to equally to everyone, so a farm would be legal, if they can control the smell.

Egg-laying chicken farm in between two multi-family units would be perfectly legal. I see this as a good thing.

Noise pollution? Chickens don't have much of a reputation for being quiet.

Also various farming can have quite different hours compared to residential living.
