The Ordinance Committee met prior to the Board meeting to discuss the Code of Ordinances regarding the regulation of pit bull dogs. Liptak stated they met with the individuals that had the dog in question and even though they don’t necessarily like it, the Code of Ordinances precludes their request. There are been others that have wanted a pit bull dog but could not because of the Code restricting it. Chapek asked about the citations they have received already. The Clerk stated that was up to the Police Dept. on the issuance of them. Liptak stated that the Clerk should issue a letter advising them they have 7 days to remove the dog from the premises. A motion was made by Licht and seconded by Kuehni to accept the Committee’s recommendation. MC.

Under Public Comment—none.

The Clerk stated to Heather (Courier/Sentinel reporter) that we would put on the next agenda to change the posting of agendas from the Sentinel office to the post office because they are open every day.
