Council discusses livestock incidents; will notify offending owners by letter
Summary
After complaints about horses and cows inside town limits, the council agreed that future incidents would be addressed by sending letters to property owners rather than immediate penalties; the minutes do not record a vote or fine schedule.
The council recorded complaints about horses and cows creating problems within Wales town limits and agreed on a non-punitive first step: sending letters to offending owners. The minutes state that the mayor had been notified and that "future incidents will be addressed with letters to offending owners of said animals." No fines, removals, or ordinance amendments were adopted during the meeting.
The action recorded is administrative in nature: town staff will issue letters to owners if incidents recur. The minutes do not specify a formal timeline, penalty structure, or a change to the existing animal ordinance; any enforcement beyond notification would require further council action.
