[Vision2020] Moscow Animal Ordinances

[Bill London]

M-
regarding your suggestion that City of Moscow post all agendas and notices to V2020....
not only is this common sense, but also a suggestion that has gone to both city and county governments for years...with some results (note that the county commissioners and city council meeting agendas are posted to V2020).
could the city/county post more? sure.
maybe many V2020 subscribers could ask them to do so.
Contact Gary Riedner at city hall....

  Kit & V2020,

   

  This is the first time I've heard about this revision effort.  I put in a fair amount of effort to stay informed of what's going on around town, but routinely visiting the city's web-site is not my habit.  I've suggested that ALL city notices, agendas, etc. be posted on V2020 as a way to distribute information (especially I input is being solicited), rather than forcing the public to search it out.  From my perspective, the technology is here and it is not a significant effort to send a web page to the community listserve (or others if there is more than one.)  It may end up being like spam, but it's useful to the community.  By the way, I appreciate the info postings the sheriff's office has been sending out.  Is this idea whack or common sense?

   

  Mark

  Saundra,

  These are the result of a request I made to council during an open mic period back in September, after my Old Dog and I were attacked one to many times on public sidewalks by dogs that were legally loose in their front yards at the time they decided to get us.

  My concern was requiring that dogs be confined, tethered, or leashed at all time so pedestrians (and old dogs) can walk anywhere in town without having to worry about collecting fang-holes. Randy Fife went a step farther and recommended a complete revision of the animal control ordinance. That was a good idea because the existing code is a bit out of date. For example, it is more concerned with grazing animals being herded down alleys than whether dogs are being fed and watered.

  The versions that are online are meant to generate discussion. At the last Administrative Committee meeting, the discussion focused on having a subcommittee that could throughly discuss and evaluate various topics. Hopefully, it would have people from a variety of viewpoints so any revisions can carry Moscow forward for many years to come.
