[Amended 1-26-2006 by Ord. No. 06-03; 10-5-2017 by Ord. No. 17-18]
It shall be unlawful for any landlord making

pet(s) of not more than $35 annually, which said fee may be increased
by 2% upon the annual renewal of the lease for said rental unit. The
landlord may refuse to permit said tenant from keeping any such pet

discretion, that the animal is dangerous or vicious.
The qualifying tenant shall comply with all
other applicable ordinances of the Borough with regard to the ownership
and maintenance of his/ her cat or dog.
Any violation of this article shall be punishable as provided for in § 1-17 of the Code.
