Rochester Code of Ordinances  Chapter 3-3 governs pigeon permits. With a permit, up to 50 pigeons are allowed on any premise. 

Permit applications must be submitted with specifications for the location of the coop or loft, and its approximate size, and will be reviewed by City staff for compliance with the regulations in the ordinance. Permits are granted by the City Clerk.
