Any dog or cat which is the subject of a violation of any section of this chapter may, or in the case of a violation of section 5-2-6 of this chapter shall, be impounded by order of the police department or any officer of the village. Such impoundment shall be at any public or private impoundment facility; provided, however, that preference shall be given to impoundment facilities within the village. The owner of any dog or cat so impounded may redeem said dog or cat by compliance with the following procedures:
(A) The owner must pay the impoundment facility for the board of the dog or cat while impounded. (Ord. 401, 11-8-1988)
(B) The owner shall pay a reclamation fee for the impoundment of a dog or cat for violation of this chapter as set forth in the schedule of fees established by the board of trustees and on file and available for public inspection in the office of the village clerk. The reclamation fee must be paid to the village before the impoundment facility will be authorized to release the dog or cat. (Ord. 643, 1-12-2010)
(C) The owner of any impounded dog must present proof of a current rabies inoculation, as required by Whiteside County ordinance. In the event the dog has not been so inoculated, the dog must receive such inoculation and the owner must pay for it, prior to release of the dog. (Ord. 401, 11-8-1988)
