The owner of a poultry processing plant that supplies chickens to Sacramento-area restaurants and markets won approval on Thursday to move his operation after the Sacramento SPCA, an early foe of the new site, dropped its opposition. The Sacramento Planning Commission, on a 10-0 vote, approved a special-use permit for the New American Poultry facility, reports the Sacramento Bee.
The executive director of the Sacramento SPCA said that the organization has decided not to actively oppose a Sacramento businessman's request to locate a poultry processing plant near the SPCA's complex.
