Dogs are on the brain for Burlington s City Council.
Councilors passed a resolution Monday to refer dog-related issues to the city s Parks, Arts and Culture Committee after a slew of incidents cropped up in recent months. These incidents as reported on social media included attacks, abandoned feces, off-leash canines and barking contributing to noise pollution.
City ordinances require people to pick up dog waste and do not allow dogs to be at-large, meaning not under control by leash, cord, chain or other similar means of physical restraint.
The resolution requested the committee make a recommendation to the Council regarding the creation of a Burlington Dog Task Force.
