[Adopted 1-23-1967]
No person, firm or corporation shall keep or
allow to be kept in any building or enclosure or on any premises in
the Borough of Norwood, of which he or they may be the owner, lessee,
tenant or occupant, any live fowl or other livestock, or any hoofed
animal or animals, without a permit from the Board of Health. No permit
will be granted to keep live fowl or other livestock, or any hoofed
animal or animals, within 300 feet of any dwelling house located on
the licensed premises, nor within 400 feet of any adjoining dwelling
house, school or church, whether the same be occupied or not, nor
within 300 feet of any part or property line on all sides.
Such permit shall expire on December 31 of the
year of issuance. The fee for this permit shall be $5 per year.
[Adopted 9-12-2011 by BH 11:01]
No household in the Borough shall own, keep, or harbor more
than a total of six dogs, six cats, or any combination of dogs and
cats in excess of six animals in total. A household may own, keep,
and harbor both dogs and cats, as long as the total number of dogs
and cats does not exceed six. Any household having more than the permitted
number of dogs and cats licensed in the Borough when this article
takes effect may continue to own, keep, harbor, and relicense these
animals, provided the owner has complied with all other relevant ordinances
of the Borough and the Board of Health. When a dog or cat dies, or
is given away or sold, it may not be replaced if the household in
which the dog or cat was owned, kept, or harbored at that time is
in excess of the permitted number of dogs, cats, or dogs and cats
combined per household.
