1 GALLATIN COUNTY ORDINANCE NO Purpose and Legislative Findings. Uncontrolled dogs present a danger to the public health, safety, and general welfare of the citizens of Gallatin County. The Gallatin County Board of County Commissioners (County Commission) has adopted prior versions of dog control ordinances, with the most recent ordinance adopted January 21, 2003 (Ordinance No ). The County Commission finds that Ordinance No is outdated after changes to relevant law. A revised ordinance is necessary to resolve ambiguities and to ensure consistency with state law and local quarantine protocols adopted by the Gallatin City- County Health Officer. 2. Authority. The County Commission is authorized by state law to adopt this Ordinance under Title 7, Chapter 23, Parts 1 and 21, Montana Code Annotated (MCA). Section MCA authorizes a board of county commissioners to adopt regulations to restrain and prohibit dogs from running at large. Sections and -2110, MCA authorize regulation and control of vicious and barking dogs. 3. Applicability. This Ordinance applies to all unincorporated areas within Gallatin County, Montana. 4. Enforcement. The Gallatin County Sheriff shall enforce all provisions of this Ordinance. 5. Adoption of the Gallatin County Dog Control Regulations. The County Commission hereby adopts the Gallatin County Dog Control Regulations, which are attached hereto and which are incorporated into this Ordinance by reference. 6. Penalty. A violation of this Ordinance is a misdemeanor. A person convicted of a violation of this Ordinance may be fined not to exceed $500 or be imprisoned in the county jail for any term not to exceed 6 months, or both. Penalties for violations of specific provisions of the Montana Code Annotated are punishable as set forth therein. 7. Severability. If any part of this Ordinance is held to be unenforceable then the remainder shall be enforceable. 8. Absolute Liability Finding. In adopting this Ordinance, the County Commission has the legislative purpose to impose absolute liability for any violation thereof. Pursuant to , MCA, any violation of this Ordinance is subject to absolute liability, and a person may be found guilty of a violation of this Ordinance without having, as to each element of the offense, one of the mental states of knowingly, negligently, or purposely. 9. Repeal of Previous Ordinances. At the time this Ordinance takes effect, all previous dog control ordinances adopted by the County Commission shall be repealed and terminated, including Public Responsibility Resolution # 504, Ordinance No. 89-1, Ordinance No , Ordinance No , and Ordinance No Page 1 of 6
