The Russell County Fiscal Court will hold its regular monthly meeting this morning.
The court is expected to hold a second reading and vote on the proposed dog ordinance that would implement a $20 fee per animal on animals surrendered to the county as well as those picked up by law enforcement or the dog warden.
Judge Executive Randy Marcum told WJRS News the county has recently seen an increase in the number of animal surrenders.
The court also will hold a second reading and vote on the amended ordinance that would require those hauling garbage to have their vehicle covered when doing so.
The court will meet at 10 a.m. at the Russell County Courthouse. The meeting is open to the public.
We’ll have more details on local news following the meeting.
