§ 6.04.055. Dog leash zones.  


Latest version.
  • A.

    By ordinance or resolution adopted after a public hearing, the Board of Supervisors may designate areas of the county as dog leash zones. All dog leash zones in existence prior to the enactment of the ordinance codified in this section shall remain in effect.

    B.

    It is unlawful for the owner or possessor of a dog to allow it to be at any place in a dog leash zone unless it is on a leash and under the control of the owner or possessor. This subsection shall not apply to dogs which are on the premises of the owner or possessor or being lawfully transported in a motor vehicle.

    C.

    Each dog leash zone shall be identified by signs placed by the Shasta County Department of Public Works and declaring that within the zone, no dog is allowed to run at large. The failure to post signs shall not be a defense to a violation of this section. (Ord. 98-9 § 1 (part), 1998)
