Staff would like to remove this <br /> language from the city code to avoid confusion regarding the licensing timeframe. The animal licenses are <br /> pre-printed for a two-year period and expire on December 31 of the second year. If a resident obtains a <br /> license in the middle of the licensing period,the license still expires December 31 of the second year. <br /> Financial Impact <br /> The license fee is $10 and is not pro-rated if a license is obtained during the licensing period. State statute <br /> allows cities to charge reasonable fees that cover direct and indirect costs in issuing the license and <br /> policing the licensed activities. <br /> Attachments <br /> ■ Ordinance <br /> P a w E A E U s r <br /> Template Updated 4/14 INIM UREI <br />
