Animal Permit

A maximum of three dogs or cats or combination of both for each residential dwelling is allowed. An animal permit may be filed with Planning Department to request additional cats or dogs (additional dogs must be licensed upon permit approval) or other types of animals

Animal owners are required to obtain an Animal Permit depending on the zone the animals will live in and the type and number of animals that will be kept.  The permit fee is a one-time payment and does not need to be renewed unless the information on the permit is no longer valid.
