On August 15, 2011 the Florence City Council adopted a new Animal Code that has some significant changes. As part of our approach to code enforcement being one of education and voluntary compliance, it is important that outreach to the community be done before the ordinance becomes effective on September 15, 2011. Enforcement action of the animal code in its entirety will be done primarily by the Code Enforcement Officer and supplemented by the police officers as necessary. Enforcement action will be generally generated on a complaint driven basis.
