All residents were <br />sent a letter outlining the requirements and provided the <br />application form to get the job done. It’s quick and easy <br />and costs $10. You will need to include your current <br />rabies certificate. In return you will get a dog tag with a <br />number on it. This could come in handy if your dog ever <br />relocates itself. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> You can mail in the form with payment, or call the office <br />to arrange for credit card payment. Call Melissa <br />Lawrence at 651-747-2790. <br /> <br />Just a reminder: if you are keeping chickens, driving a <br />golf cart along city streets or have a rental property, you <br />also need a license. Call for more information. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
