Ordinance 21-069, relating to Animal Licensing and Licensing Fees; amending Sections 9.04.010, 9.04.040, 9.04.050, and 9.04.060 of Snohomish County Code

DEPARTMENT:  Auditor’s Office

 

ORIGINATOR:  Debby Zins

 

EXECUTIVE RECOMMENDATION:  Approved - Lacey Harper

 

PURPOSE: Amending Snohomish County Code 9.04 Dog and Cat Licenses

 

BACKGROUND: This amendment allows for the issuing of a permanent pet tag rather than issuing a new pet tag each year for cats and dogs in Snohomish County.  A pet tag will be permanently assigned to a specific pet and pet tags will only be replaced by request if lost or become unreadable.  The cost of a replacement pet tag is $5.00.  The county will reduce administrative and supply costs (~$5,000) by eliminating the automatic replacement of a pet tag upon renewal of a pet license.
