Latest version.
  • Upon receipt of a complaint by any person living in the neighborhood that any dog, cat, animal, poultry or household pet is a habitual nuisance by reason of howling, barking, or other noise, or is in any other manner causing undue annoyance, that shall constitute a public nuisance, and the animal control officer if he finds such public nuisance to exist, shall serve notice upon the owner or custodian that the public nuisance shall be abated. If the nuisance and annoyance cannot be successfully abated and the animal control officer determines it necessary to impound such dog, cat, animal, poultry or household pet, he shall not thereafter permit the reclaiming or redemption of the animal to the owner or custodian unless and until adequate arrangements have been made by the owner or custodian to insure abatement of the annoyance or public nuisance.
