More Legislation - from LASPCA

LEGISLATION

With the proper laws, ordinances, and enforcement options in place our government can improve the quality of life for our four-legged and two-legged citizens. We are often called upon to give our opinions and lend our expertise to the formation of these laws and ordinances. See below for what is going on now in government and click here to see a list of ordinances we currently enforce.

The LA/SPCA supports this ordinance for several reasons. We hope you take a moment to review the ordinance and let your council person know how you feel. Show your support on May 6, 2010 at 10a.m. in the City Council meeting, we'll see you there.
