 Where do I apply for a dog or cat license and what is the cost?

Dog and cat licenses are handled by the business office located in City Hall. All dogs and cats that reside in the city limits must be licensed and tagged after reaching six months of age. Proof of rabies vaccination is also required on file in City Hall. Charges vary depending on whether or not the animal is spayed/neutered or not.  Beginning January 1 until April 15th (think tax day!) the fee will be $5.00 for spayed/neutered pets and $15.00 for animals that have not been unsexed. The fee will increase $1.00 for each month after April 15th.  Any and all questions regarding pet licenses can be directed to the City Hall employees.
