Y Hensall council members have decided to ap s roach a local resident abt on the duties t tog catche in the village. A recent census found there are 100 dogs in the. village, 97 of which are licensed. _ Clerk Betty Oke said one of the dog owners of an unlicensed dog had already been notified they must buy a license and council recommended if the owner refused- to purchase his license after a second reminder, then•he should be subject to the full penalty under the town bylaw. The penalty wouldibe a $50 fine. -, Although council members have been receiving a number of complaints about dogs.,running loose in the villa, the animals stayed off the.streets for at leastone day recently. Clerk Betty Oke reported she hired a dog catcher through the Canada Man- power office but after driving around the village for a day in his pickup truck, he reported he didn't see a dog and resigned. The clerk suggested the next village dog catcher might be paid the $15 penalty for each dog picked up and returned to the owner, rather than an hourly salary. "Getting the penalty is a bit of an incentive." the clerk said.
