Now I now that in Deltona FL a resident was able to prove that state issued permits to keep otherwise prohibited animals superseded any local city or county ordinances. In effect making them null and void as long as you get your papers.



Now what I have to wonder is if such a thing is due to the specific wording of the laws in FL, or would that be generally true, for example here in TX.



If you had a permit to keep a certain number of indigenous animals or exotic venomous or the listed large boids in TX, and the state (TP&W) list with your name and inventory was reviewed by your local LE. Could they act? Would the state issued permit overrule or override the local ordinances? What are the liabilities and concerns now? After all this list or permit holders will be public information…



I just want to know how this would pan out, because sooner or later it will happen.
