the streets or public property of the village or property of another
person. Any such animal running at large shall be liable to be impounded
by the police or Animal Control Officer.

of assurance that such animal will be removed from the village upon
a determination by the police that the danger to the health or safety
or welfare of the public has terminated. If the animal has not been
released seven days after impoundment, then such animal may be disposed
of by sale or destroyed. If the disposition is by sale, the proceeds
thereof shall accrue to the village.
