What to do if I got sheep with permission from my township but now 6 years later it wants me to get rid of them?

I have 4acres of land and started a fiber business. The business is going very good and I have clients that I ship to all over the world. Now the town says that I have to get rid of my sheep. If it gave me permission to get them in the first place, can they shut down my business on me after 6 years?

Assuming you have written permisison from the township for the sheep you have then the township should be barred from demanding that you remove them. I suggest that you consult with an attorney experienced in dealing with governmental entity law.
