11)Resolution brought to the board June 22, 2006

This is scary. They actually believed they were going to get this adopted on June 22, 2006.

No committee, no public hearing. Just adopt it and keep the veterinarians happy.
Pity they can't put that much effort into keeping the people happy.
The vets make more than enough money to cover the puny little $75 this would cost them.
The county could pay them $75 as part of their pay for selling dog licenses.
Sure would have been a whole lot cheaper than dancing through all of these hoops!
