Board urges reminders for late dog registrations; adding fees to tax bill not supported
Summary
Members discussed dog-registration due dates and reminders for late owners; a proposal to add registration charges as a tax-bill line item was raised and rejected as not possible under current procedures.
Board members discussed dog-registration compliance and enforcement. The chair noted the registration due date "was the 1st" and asked that reminders be sent to owners who remain late.
A member asked whether dog registration fees could be added to property tax bills; other members responded that such a line-item addition was not possible. Members agreed staff should send out reminders for late registrations to prompt compliance.
The discussion did not produce a vote or a change in enforcement policy; staff were asked to circulate reminders and continue monitoring registration rates.
