~o gpc~ c t~"u11y I of f' er ~h~ ~ ollcw ink; s u.,~;~~e s t ions r e~ardin~; the
doh situation.
r'irst. eye have enough ordinances on the hooks novv that if' theyw ere
~ro~erty en~'orced ~ha doh situation vuould be much irlprovea. [;ach anti every
doh ovuner who wanes tc> keep his doh; should b e vuillin~; to day the doh; fax.
This can k~e ac~o~plish~d by ~n~ 'olice, or a Doi CatcYier making a door
door drive. 'T'he addi ckonal money taken in tivould certainl~T ~o a long way
toward of'd'-setting; tho expense. ~f ter this ha ~ been dona tkle remainiri~; doffs should be s~Tstematie~lly elimirlate~. Country doffs coming into town should be
picked up and action taken to force the owner to paTT the city tax and have
the doh; vaccinated ~o~ rabies or the doh; must ~i~ kept taut off' town.
llo~ s #~hat are confined durin.~° tale summa r ra~ntlls ar~~ noi~~~.er and more apt to
become mean then doffs that are Loose. I am not enta.rely against tho proposed
Ordinance but I do not believa it to ~~e a cure-a11.
Leis set Tllarch 15th as trio deadsi ne f' or the do owners to pafiT tho doh tax and
het rak~ies ~~ho~s for their ~~ets. 't'hena "ter a linal ~^a~rnins=A the police should
stas~~ pickir~~ up all do_s not lice.~sed.
Why ~~ass any snore ordinances w,:~~n we are not eizforcin~ the ones we a7_ready h~v
it is my opinion ck~ t throuEn this :lethod about 1~3 os l;~~e d~~ s in totian tivould be eliminated ~~~n~ a~out x'1000 to X1500 put into the C;~ty ~'roasury to offeot
