Interesting. I guess that begs the question of whether or not I need the smaller run attached the the coop, or if I should just let them run around the entire area behind the garage. My ordinance says: "A covered enclosure or fenced enclosure shall not be located closer than ten (10) feet from a property line of an adjacent property nor shall it be located closer than forty (40) feet to any residential structure on an adjacent property."

It might be worth having some fenced enclosure connected to the coop (which will meet the distance requirements) so I can make the argument that our yard fence isn't the enclosure itself.

We have a bunny that spends a lot of time in our yard. I wonder if it will like the chickens.
