The Bill requires that a Virginia pet-owner database be established,
first at the county level, then statewide. That database will be
available to commercial and all other interests under the Freedom of
Information Act (FOIA).
When I spoke with Senator Watkins' office, I was assured the
database would be available to the public because it would be maintained
on the Web.
Laura, just a day or two ago you said this information was already
public knowledge, did you not? Which is it?
