(A) Practices to be observed in the keeping of the animals under this chapter.
(B) Upon the obtaining of the permit from the Town Clerk-Treasurer as provided in § 90.40, every keeper shall observe the following practices.
(1) Every keeper of any of the animals shall confine the same in an enclosure sufficient to prevent their running at-large and the enclosure shall be maintained in a clean and sanitary condition at all times and approved insecticide shall be used as often as deemed necessary by the town’s Health Officer.
(2) Every keeper shall provide a shelter or area of a size sufficient to be conducive to good sanitation practices and he, she, or they shall provide adequate and sanitary drainage for the shelter or area.
(3) Every keeper of any of the animals shall cause the litter and droppings therefrom to be collected daily in a container or receptacle of a type that when closed it is rat-proof and fly-tight and after each collection shall cause the container or receptacle to be kept closed. At least twice each week, each keeper shall cause all litter and droppings so collected to be disposed of in a way as not to permit the presence of fly larvae.
(4) Every keeper of any animals shall cause all feed provided therefor to be stored and kept in a rat-proof, fly-tight building, box, container, or receptacle.
(5) The failure of any keeper of any of the animals to comply with the provisions of this chapter or the sanitation standards and requirements established by the town’s Health Officer shall be cause for the town’s Health Officer to refuse to grant a permit for the keeping of animals, or if the permit shall have been previously granted to the keeper, shall be cause for the revocation of the same. The decision of the town’s Health Officer shall be subject to review by the Sanitary Committee of the Board if the applicant feels non-granting of permit or revocation of permit to be unjustified.
(6) The premises shall be subject to inspection by the town’s Health Officer or any of his, her, or their representatives at any reasonable hour of the day.
