Ordinances

We have ordinances for:

  • Animal Waste Disposal - You are responsible for removal of fecal materials left by your animal.
  • Leash Law - All dogs must be on a leash or confined by a fence, even on the owner's property.
  • Cable or Chain Restrictions - Any animal kept on a chain, cable, or tie out must remain 15 feet from where the general public can be, i.e., sidewalks, alleys, or roadways.
  • City Licensing - All dogs and cats over four months of age must be vaccinated for rabies by a licensed veterinarian and licensed yearly. All the local veterinarians and the City Utility Office sell city licensing, with proof of yearly vaccination (rabies certificate).
