-----Original Message----- PLEASE CROSSPOST The 9th Draft of the Louisville Animal Control Ordinance has just been released. Although Louisvillians are now permitted to go to court to appeal a decision by the Secretary of Public Works (previous head of the Sanitation Dept), few other changes that we requested were made. In fact, one change that was made PROHIBITS the owning of any animal NOT SPECIFICALLY NAMED in the ordinance, even though Kentucky is NOT a home rule state, and the Metro government lacks the authority to pass such a sweeping prohibition. This is still an ANIMAL RIGHTS ordinance, and MUST be defeated!
