~aw~ stated dogs need as much exercise as human beings, and the leash law restricts
<br />the dog owners as well as the dogs. Also, she had checked with the County Veteri-
<br />
<br />narian, and the last recorded case of a rabid dog was in 1957, and cited the City
<br />
<br />Ordinances now in effect, if enforced, would be adequate and would restrict the
<br />
<br />necessity for a leash law. Mr. Sawaya stated giving full freedom to the canines
<br />will result in a greater number of dogs running loose and children being bitten.
<br />
<br />It is important that there is a dog leash law to give authority to the Police Depart-
<br />
<br />ment and the Pound Master, so they can easily locate the animal~ in case of a bite,
<br />
<br />know its age, whether it has had rabies shots, and the owner's name. Dogs allowed
<br />
<br />to run loose are often encountered and chased off school grounds by administrators
<br />
<br />and teachers. Mrs. Julius Krakauer, 2410 So. Ramona Drive, stated that in the
<br />
<br />Northern California State Parks no animals, leashed or unleashed, are allowed in the
<br />
<br />parks during the daylight hours, or to remain in the park overnight, and favored such
<br />
<br />a law for the City. Darryl Peterson, 1218 Carlton Place, a letter carrier, cited
<br />
<br />statistics of dog bites and the cost to the Post Office for treatment and loss of
<br />
<br />work by the mail carriers, and stated the Letter Carriers Association were vitally
<br />interested in having a dog leash law adopted. Sid Holland, 931 Orange Avenue, re-
<br />called an instance , when he was delivering mail and was attacked by an unleashed
<br />dog acc~npanied by its owner; also many instances of dogs Jumping out of open windows
<br />
<br />of cars. Mrs. A. A. Famularo, 2322 So. Ramona Drive, stated the Hensley child was
<br />
<br />seriously bitten on the face and strongly urged a leash law. Joseph Sorello, 203B
<br />
<br />Oak Street, objected to dogs running unrestrained in packs and chasing after moving
<br />vehicles. The hearing was closed. It was moved by Councilman Brew er that the
<br />
<br />"Ordinance amending Section 4115 of the Santa Aha Municipal Code to prohibit dogs
<br />
<br />running at large" be placed on file for second reading. Motion lost for lack of a
<br />
<br />second. It was moved by CounciLman Heinly and seconded by Hubbard that the Dog
<br />
<br />Leash Ordinance be tabled.
