A. Whenever the village president deems it necessary to prevent an epidemic of rabies, he may issue a proclamation in a newspaper of general circulation within the village, requiring the owners of all dogs to keep them securely confined, or properly muzzled so they cannot bite, for such times as may be designated in the proclamation or until further notice.

B. Any dog in violation of such proclamation shall be impounded.

C. Any owner of a dog in violation of such a proclamation shall be subject to the penalties specified in Section 6.28.010. (Ord. 1978-7 § 2-10, 1978)
