Fiscal Court approves second reading of animal-control ordinance with added cross-reference
Summary
On second reading the court approved amendments to Ordinance 842.3 to add cross-referenced definitions for 'physical injury' and 'physical trauma' and voted to adopt the ordinance as amended.
The Boyle County Fiscal Court completed second reading and approved amendments to the county's animal control ordinance (Ordinance 842.3).
A magistrate noted a sentence drawn from statute had been omitted from the draft definitions and asked that it be added back so the ordinance cross-references the fuller statutory definitions. After brief review, a magistrate amended the pending motion "to include that line," and the court voted. The judge announced the motion carried and the second reading passed.
Court members discussed administrative placement for animal control following the vote and confirmed that animal control authority will sit with the sheriff's office going forward.
