The Augusta City Council on Monday will be considering the first draft of a revised animal control ordinance that would do away with banning specific dog breeds. The ordinance will be discussed at the council’s regular meeting at 7 p.m. City Code Ch. 2, Article 1, 2-114 Dangerous Dogs; prohibited states, “It shall be unlawful for any person or legal entity to keep, harbor or in any way possess a dangerous dog as defined by this article within the limits of the City of Augusta, Kansas.” “The current draft of the revised city ordinance would continue to address dangerous animals, but the provisions would no longer be breed-specific or prohibit certain breeds from existing within the city,” the city said on Facebook.
