OLD BUSINESS
Kenny asked Animal Control Officer Ned Hines to come to the board and give them an update
on the 2 Dangerous /Vicious dog cases the board has had in the last couple of months. Hines told
the board that Maples which was the owner of the dogs of the first hearing had moved and they
were following up on that because she had not notified the City of her new address which was
part of her compliance. This means that she is now in violation of the order that was set by the
board. The Shell's dogs are still at the shelter, they are waiting on the insurance of which they
are trying to obtain from out of state.

There being no further business, on a motion duly made, seconded and passed unanimously. The
