Fido fines are on the rise
BLYTH-Dogs and dog owners will no
longer be able to get away, cheap in the
village.
Council here is cracking down on animal
control and is raising fines and license
prices.
The renewed enforcement of the laws and
fine system is being made in an effort to
keep tighter control over Blyth's canine
population.
Along with stiffer penalties, Blyth Council
has taken action to see that the laws are en-
forced by hiring a new animal control of-
ficer, Joe Mahon. He replaces Art McClure
who recently resigned.
Mt. Mahon will be enforcing a new,
stricter set of rules and higher fees. Council
approved higher license prices of: $5 for
male or spayed female; $7 for each addi-
tional dog; $11 for female dogs; $16 for each
additional female. The fees have all been in-
creased $1 from last year.
Impounded dogs will be kept a minimum
of three days. To recover their animal the
owner must pay $5 for each 24 hour period
that the dog has been impounded, plus a $25
fine. Impounding charges were previously
set at $2 per day.
Announcements will be made on Cable TV
Channel 12 and on a free service announce-
ment on CKNX-Radio regarding any im-
pounded dogs.
Dogs that are not claimed will be
destroyed.
Council gave some thought to a suggestion
from Councillor Bill Manning to omit the
yearly tag fees in favor of a one-time $20
license. He noted that this would involve less
time and less filing.
Councillor Bill Howson suggested that
some people would 1r less likely to pay a $20
fee.
Councillor Manning agreed, but noted,
"The $4 charge is less painful than $20 all at
once, butfive years down the road you still
have your $20."
Council agreed to retain the yearly licens-
ing fee.
They hope that with stricter enforcement
and higher penalties, Blyth's dog population
will be better controlled.
