Dog Licenses are also due for the year, and soon Cat Licensing may begin as well. For the 2008 year, please note when licensing your animals to bring in papers if they have been spayed or neutered as the licensing fee is different. The fee for a fixed animal remains at $8.00, and $10.00 for unfixed for the year if purchased during January or February. Any licenses purchased after February of the year will be $25.00 for fixed and $30.00 for unfixed (unless it is a new animal to the home, then you have 60 days to obtain a license at the lower rate). There are many changes proposed for the Animal Control Bylaw. If you would like more information on this or any other bylaw in the Village, please contact the office at your convenience.
