[Amended 9-6-1979 by L.L. No. 30-1979]
No rabbit hutch or place for the keeping of
rabbits shall be constructed or maintained unless the person desiring
to maintain the same shall first make application thereof, in writing,
to the Board of Trustees and obtain an annual permit for which the
fee shall be as set by the Board of Trustees by resolution of a majority
vote of its members at a Board meeting. Such permit shall expire on May 31 following the date
of its issuance.
Before any annual permit is issued as provided in §
76-25 hereof, the person desiring to maintain such rabbit hutch or place for the keeping of rabbits shall file a statement accompanying the application which shall set forth the maximum number of rabbits to be maintained during the license period, and, upon the granting of such license or permit, such applicant shall be limited to the maintenance of the number of rabbits not exceeding the amount allowed in such permit. These provisions shall apply to all persons heretofore or hereafter maintaining a rabbit hutch or a place for the keeping of rabbits, and no such rabbit hutch or place for the keeping of rabbits shall hereafter be constructed or maintained without such permit.
All such rabbit hutches or places for the keeping
of rabbits shall be kept in a clean and sanitary condition, and all
rabbits shall at all times be confined within such hutch or place
for the keeping thereof.
No person shall at any time have or maintain
in such rabbit hutch or place for the keeping of rabbits more than
10 rabbits, and the maintenance of the amount exceeding 10 is hereby
unlawful, except in such places within the business zones of the Village
in which a rabbit hutch or place for the keeping of rabbits has been
operated and continuously maintained for a period of one year prior
to July 8, 1948.
