Cincinnati Pit Bull Ban Repealed

Breed-specific legislation repealed after nine years

May 16th, 2012 By Hannah McCartney

[…] Today, Cincinnati City Council voted 8-1 to officially repeal the breed-specific language in Cincinnati’s vicious dog ordinance, which previously made ownership of pit bulls within city limits illegal.

[…] The amendments to Section 701-1-V of the Cincinnati Municipal code completely remove breed-specific terminology, meaning today marks the first day since 2003 in which ownership of pit bulls within Cincinnati city limits is officially legal. […]
