This week the City Council changed the City’s ordinance regulating nuisance dogs, establishing a new hearing procedure and fine structure.
Before, a citation could only be issued for licensed dogs because the citation was attached to the license. The owner first had to be forced to get a license. Under the new code, Animal Control officers can now issue citations even if the dog is unlicensed. (The dog owner must still get a license.)
A dog is a “nuisance” if it barks continuously for 10 minutes or for 30 minutes in a three-hour period. The owner first receives a written warning allowing them to improve the situation. If it persists, a hearing is held where the owner could get a $250 fine for the first offense, $500 for a second offense and $1,000 for a third offense.
To report nuisance barking dogs, please call West Valley Animal Care Center at (888) 452-7381.

We hate to say goodbye though we wish you the best of luck.
After over 2 ½ years we have to say goodbye to our beloved Captain William “Bill” Scott who has been promoted to Commander and leaving Mission Area. His new assignment, he’ll be going to West Bureau near Wilshire Division.. Captain Scott was promoted to Captain in May of 2007 and joined Mission Area as the Mission Patrol Division Commander. In 2008 he was assigned to Special Assistant at Office of Operations and by mid 2009 he returned to Mission Area as the stations Commander.
Best of luck Commander Scott, you will be truly missed. Thanks for all you have done for Mission Area, for the morale at the station, the Community Police Advisory Board, our youth and all communities within Mission Division.
