Denison City Council Meeting Notice

Comment on Proposed Animal Ordinance by Riley Russ

3 weeks ago

"Denison Mayor and City Council, As a Dension resident and responsible animal owner, I implore you to table and stop the proposal to amend City Code Chapters 55 and 56 regarding animal protection and dangerous animals. This proposal is horribly lacking in research and stakeholder input! As written, the proposal bans aquariums with more than six fish, pet ferrets, many parrots, commonly kept pet reptiles and amphibians, and much more. It is horribly drafted and lacks any legitimate rationale. This ordinance that is going to negatively affect a large percentage of Denison residents needs a dedicated workshop with animal owners. This is absolutely bad and overreaching government policy. I would not expect this from my beloved home of Denison. As written, this ordinance bans most fish tanks, pet geckos, pet tortoises, houses with a few fish and a couple of birds, many pet parrots, and many other unjust examples. How did this happen in my city? Please pause this action so Denison residents have time to digest what the Council is proposing. It lacks forethought and residents were not aware of the many consequences until recently. Please understand that local residents do not have the time to dedicate to watching law changes but we are now aware of what is actually happening, rather than just a change to keeping chickens as reported in the news which was very misleading and misinforming. Thank you for your time and have a good day. Sincerely, Riley Russ"
