SHB 1151 - H AMD 0110 FAILED 3-12-03

By Representative Carrell

On page 10, beginning on line 14, after "(1)" strike all material through "humans" on line 22 and insert the following:

"On or after the effective date of this act, no city or county may adopt an ordinance governing dangerous or potentially dangerous wild animals that is more restrictive than this chapter, including, but not limited to, adding animals to the definition of potentially dangerous wild animals, creating additional caging standards, and creating stricter care and treatment provisions. Nothing in this subsection applies to ordinances adopted prior to the effective date of this act"

EFFECT: Replaces a provision allowing a city or county to adopt an ordinance more restrictive than the act with a provision that ordinances adopted on or after the effective date of the act may not be more restrictive than the act. Clarifies that the subsection does not apply to ordinances adopted prior to the effective date of the act.
