Tax on Dogs and Cats Proposed to Fund Painless Pound
A proposed ordinance from Commissioner Macfarland and Health Officer Woodward would double pet taxes, taxing dogs and cats over one month old at 1 and 10 annually under conditions. The bill aims to fund a humane pound and end stray animal suffering, with penalties for untaxed pets and coverage extending to rats. About 1,400 stray animals are cited as citywide, needing shelter during cold weather.
