3 Chairman Yraceburn reminded everyone that they are in this meeting because they care for animals and so as comments or ideas are expressed, courtesy should be observed and accorded the speaker. The Commission will not hear from those who will be disruptive. The following public comments and questions were received: 1. Susan Madigan Provided a list of her questions, comments and her proposed recommendations for the proposed ordinance. She expressed her disappointment in the community s response to the proposed ordinance. 2. Doris Mac Lois Henry s Sept. article prompted her to compile statistics on # s of animals for sale in the newspaper. There were 418 ads in Sept., 300 in Oct., 1124 in Nov. and 1245 in Dec. 3. Marilyn Stewart stated that there should be fair and reasonable permit regulations. 4. Cheyenne Requested clarification on the cost for a permit for facilities with non-altered animals. Clarification provided: pg. 12 of draft ordinance. She asked if one neighbor constituted a considerable number of people in regards to a nuisance call. Commissioner Yraceburn told her, No. 5. Jane Adler needed clarification on grandfather rules. Mr. James explained the two grandfather clauses. Chairman Yraceburn stated the Commission has not yet decided which of the two will be used. 6. Martha Antongiovani- Does not feel any laws regulating breeders or mandatory spay/neuter will solve the problems. She feels there should be public education and PSA s encouraging people to buy from reputable breeders. Chairman Yraceburn clarified that this draft ordinance has no provisions for mandatory S/N. 7. Vicki Hill Stressed the importance of education. She pointed out that Turlock Animal Control has excellent education and outreach in the local schools. Their euthanasia rate is at 17%. She pointed out that legitimate breeders aren t the dumpers and dumpers don t license. She wants to see a local S/N program. 8. Bob Rutledge expressed concern that the voluntary spay/neuter has not worked. Kern County has to have rules for all animals because some breeders have vested interest and treat animals as commodities. 9. Michelle Thurman Timmerman Read from prepared notes she put together based on the Dec. stats which show the numbers are not better. Education is the key She believes that more education is not the only answer and that more effective action needs to be taken. 10. Cindy Holloway stated that the commission address the issue of PPPPs (People Producing Puppies for Profit) and create an ordinance for the welfare of the animals. 11. Joan Payton reacted on Item G of The chairman told her that the item was moved over from Penny Melco Suggested AC contact Mary from the Ridgecrest shelter for input on how we could improve. Expressed frustration with Commission and AC and feels maybe they don t actually care about animals. Stated that more money be put into the program. Responsible pet owner education should be mandatory and a part of the ordinance. 13. Shelley Mollholand Encouraged breeders to step in and help rescue from the shelter. She needs help to place the dogs she has rescued. Complimented Chevie Johnston, Animal Care Worker, on the wonderful job she does with Rescue groups. 14. Sue Bennett Thought that cats would be eliminated from the permit numbers. She wonders how S/N on cats would be enforced. She knows cats are an issue but feels a separate discussion is necessary. 15. Barbara Allen commented on the emphasis for training of pet owners and breeders as dogs need to be safe and loved. She also asked on the fees for conditional use permit, and Mr. James responded that CUP costs close to $1, Christy Means Wondered as to the worth of the public workshops as the public spoke out against limits and it seems the Commission is still pursuing limits. Chairman Yraceburn clarified that nothing in the Ordinance seeks limits. Secondly, she rents a property and asked is she can apply for non-commercial animal establishment. Mr. James informed her that an E zone with KERN COUNTY ANIMAL CONTROL COMMISSION- SUMMARY OF PROCEEDINGS Page 3 of 5
4 RS designated is OK by rights to have a non-commercial animal establishment and she wouldn t have to apply for a CUP. 17. Dianne Ferguson commented on the TV brief interview with Marilyn Stewart and Judyth Coffman. She added that education only works when people want to be educated and that compassion and common sense can t be taught. 18. Katelan Anderson Clarified that breeders do not breed for profit but for the betterment of the breed. She asked how Rescues could be considered a commercial establishment (ord. 7.04) Mr. Price clarified that they are commercial entities for the purpose of permitting. She also suggested that the definition for Rescue be cleaned up as rescues exist to rehabilitate and rehome. 19. Steven Braden The focus of the animal ordinance should be on animal welfare. He asked if prosecution focuses on # s or actual abuse with his point being the ordinance should focus on abuse no matter the numbers. He said Lerimore, CO has a good example of an ordinance that is strong on # s w/o mentioning # s. 20. Terry Khun She has animals and if she has conditional use permit, asked if CUP stays with her if she moves. Mr. James replied that CUP does not stay with her if she moves. 21. Judith Connelly She does TNR (trap, neuter, release) of abandoned cats and wonders if these cats would be considered hers. Mr. Price answered that only the cats she states she owns would be considered hers. 22. Lara Silvas Brought up the issue of goats and sheep, these animals should also be included in the ordinance as a lot of people butcher and eat them. Chairman Yraceburn clarified that the ordinance does not deal with livestock. 23. Rob Jones (not present) - Denise Haynes read from notes she took while talking to him. He was unable to attend tonight but did attend the Tehachapi meeting. He feels the ordinance is setting up a bureaucracy financed by animal owners. Does not understand how the ordinance will address the issue of hoarders. He is absolutely opposed to the revisions; he doesn t want to pay $50 for a person to inspect his property. He said AC should enforce existing laws, not create more. He will send a letter to the Commission. Commissioner s Comments: 1. Commissioner Elliot (absent) sent in language revisions. 2. Commissioner Weir no comments. 3. Comissioner Anderson There were a lot of good ideas expressed tonight and these will be taken into consideration on the proposed ordinance. 4. Chairman Yraceburn The draft will be reviewed and the public s concerns and ideas will be addressed. A line by line review of the draft ordinance will occur at the meeting in February. 5.
