Hawai'i 96720 <br /> RF: Proposed Bill to Replace Chapter 4, Animals, Hawaii County Code, in its Entirety <br /> <br /> Attached is a proposed bill to replace Chapter 4, Animals, Hawaii County Code, in its entirety. <br /> This bill is a replication of Chapter 7, Animals and Fowl, of the Revised Ordinances of <br /> Honolulu. with a few minor adjustments. 'I'his bill sets forth Honolulu's ordinance, which some <br /> in the community have suggested may be clearer and easier to understand than our current law. <br /> Given its useful content. I put forth this bill in order to serve as a vehicle for future amendment. <br /> After all Council Members have had an opportunity to thoroughly review this. they may propose <br /> amendments to tine tune the bill in order to meet the needs o f f awaii County. <br /> <br /> this version of l lonolulu's ordinance contains provisions relating to the following: cocklighting <br /> and related equipment, animal nuisances, dog licenses, regulation of dogs, public spay and neuter <br /> clinic for dogs and cats, cat identification program, and regulation of dangerous dogs. It <br /> addresses a majority of the concerns that were aired and discussed, including provisions <br /> regarding licensed obedience trial, tracking, and show dogs, sterilization of cats and dogs, strict <br /> enforcement of strays, and regulation of noisy animals (not just dogs). <br /> <br /> I would like to request that this proposed bill be placed on the next agenda of the public Safety <br /> and Parks and Recreation Committee scheduled for April 18, 2006. 'I'hank you for your <br /> consideration. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> 17 4 <br /> • <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Oi'V rely, <br /> rwa <br /> s Y.
