The Pet Ordinance Amendment is in to the city clerk.

I heard her name for the first time today: her AUNT is the Humane Society CHAIRPERSON! You want to talk about SYMPATICO? She's going to help expedite this through the city attorney so I can start getting it signed at the fundraiser next Wednesday night.

Talk about LUCK.

This could be very good!

I remember your posts about your neighbor and the dogs (am I remembering right?). I wish you the best of luck. :hug:

he has no pets, just a big annoying mouth and 4 kids that he yells at 90% of the time when he's home...

Number of dogs, and noise.

In Owosso, you can shoot off FIRECRACKERS year round from 7 am to 10 pm but if your DOG barks, ANYTIME, they can fuck you.

This wasn't about the dogs anyway. Just a nasty old bitch with nothing better to do than call the cops on neighbors and watch the fun.

from 5-4 (the number)?

I like the foster canine allowance. That's good.

This is under a personal residences section.

I gave it as much wiggle room as I could, and the clerk helped to get a little more. Nice lady.
