<br /> <br />Proposed Amendment for Dangerous Animals Ordinance -- # 1 <br />Amy Ihlan <br /> <br />I move to amend the draft ordinance to add: <br /> <br />501.16(E?) Determination of Status <br /> <br />(2) Exemption. An animal mav not be declared dangerous or potentially dangerous if <br />the threat, iniury or damage was sustained by a person: <br />(a) who was committing, at the time, a willful trespass or other tort upon the <br />premises occupied by the owner of the animal: <br />(b) who was provoking, tormenting, abusing, or assaulting the animal or can be <br />shown to have repeatedly, in the past, provoked, tormented, abused or assaulted the <br />animal: or <br />(c) who was committing or attempting to commit a crime. <br /> <br />This language is from Minn. Stat. S347.51, Subd. 5 (modified to substitute "animal" for <br />"dog"). <br />
