Upon the payment of the license fee, the Village Clerk shall issue to the owner of a dog a license certificate and a metallic tag for each dog so licensed. The metallic tag shall be properly attached to the collar or harness of all dogs so licensed and shall entitle the owner to keep or harbor said dog until April 30 following such licensing. In the event that a license tag is lost and upon satisfactory evidence that the original plate or tag was issued in accordance with the provisions herein, the Village Clerk shall issue a duplicate or new tag for the balance of the year for which the license tax has been paid and may charge and collect the fee of $5 for each duplicate or new tag so issued. All license fees and collections shall immediately be credited to the General Fund. It shall be the duty of the Village Clerk to issue tags of a suitable design with a different appearance each year.
