[HISTORY: Adopted by the Board of Trustees of the Village of Pelham
as indicated in article histories. Amendments noted where applicable.]
[Adopted 11-6-1978 by L.L.
No. 4-1978]
The Board of Trustees of the Village of Pelham recognizes that the existing
dog license fees provided for by § 109 of the Agriculture and Markets
Law are inadequate to compensate the Village for it costs relating to the
administration of dog licensing and control of dogs in the Village. This chapter
is enacted pursuant to Chapter 220 of the Laws of New York 1978, Sections
1 through 7, and Chapter 221 of the Laws of New York 1978, Sections 1 through
4,[1] to increase the dog license fees collected by the Village to help
compensate it for such costs.

Editor's Note: See § 106 et seq. of the Agriculture and
Markets Law.
[Amended 5-7-1985 by L.L.
No. 3-1985; 10-1-2002 by L.L. No. 5-2002]
In addition to the dog license fees which, in the absence of any local
laws to the contrary, are or would be provided for by such applicable actions
of the Agriculture and Markets Law as may be in force and effect from time
to time, any applicant for a dog license in the Village of Pelham shall pay
to the Clerk of the Village of Pelham an additional fee in an amount established
by resolution of the Board of Trustees, which additional fee shall be the
property of the Village.
