Thanks to Lena for the reminder!
The town council is in the process of updating its dog control ordinance. The proposal is not breed-specific at this time. However, several weeks ago, a citizen called for a “pit bull” ban in Friday Harbor, and news media was supportive. Locals should watch and participate in the dog law update to ensure it does not become breed-specific.
Friday Harbor town council will discuss dangerous dog regulations during their council meeting on Jan 20, 2011, at 5:30 PM in Town Council Chambers, 60 Second Street.
An agenda, including a link to the current proposal, can be found here: http://www.fridayharbor.org/town%20council/TownCouncil.htm
