Council close to adopting an animal ordinance

Topic addresses permits, animal nuisances, appeals and penalties

Once upon a time nearly every household in Bluffton had a horse, possibly a cow and perhaps chickens.

These were animals serving an important function including travel and food. Those days are gone and it is doubtful they will return.

Bluffton has few legal animal regulations other than dogs must be on leashes.
