Ordinance 2026-04 was adopted to amend multiple chapters of the Town Code (Title 6) on animal licensing, impounding, chicken-keeping, and traps; the ordinance removes references to an animal shelter the town no longer maintains.

Huachuca City’s Town Council adopted Ordinance 2026-04 on Feb. 12, 2026, to revise Title 6 of the Town Code governing animals. The changes cover expiration of licenses and vaccinations, removal of provisions referencing the town animal shelter, rules for keeping chickens, and animal capture and traps. The motion to adopt was moved by Johann R. Wallace and seconded by Christy Hirshberg.

The ordinance removes obsolete references to the town’s animal shelter (the minutes state the town no longer has a shelter) and updates impoundment and adoption language. The minutes do not record an amendment or a council vote breakdown beyond a unanimous adoption by those present.
