Local govt can't seem to regulate anything other than those which they want to view punitively.
Signs, trash, housing and development standards, swap shops, Section 8, criminality, street repair,
Business retention + in-employment---
Why worry about house pets?

Have a problem there--who would you call anyway?]]> Mon, 03 Dec 2012 09:56:06 +0000 http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4902&PID=35892&title=pet-limit#35892 Pet limit? : Funny you should ask this, as... http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4902&PID=35891&title=pet-limit#35891 Author: justwatching

Funny you should ask this, as dog tags renewals for 2013 just opened over the weekend. While I was on the site purchasing my tags I saw info about Kennels. Read here at the bottom of the page: http://www.butlercountyauditor.org/index.cfm?page=dog

So looks like to qualify in the county as a Kennel you need at least 10 acres.

Kennel License Information

Requirements for a Kennel under the Butler County, Ohio Rural Zoning Resolution, which applies to the following six townships - Hanover, Lemon, Madison, Milford, Oxford, Ross:

  • Shall have direct access to a major arterial or to a collector street.
  • The site shall not contain fewer than ten (10) acres.
  • Any building for this use shall be located not less than 300 feet from any property line.
  • Landscaping plan for the external use of the kennel to effectively screen such use shall be submitted to the board of zoning appeals for approval

Residents of these six townships applying for the first time for a kennel license must present a letter from their local zoning board confirming the above requirements are met in your individual case.

Other townships and municipalities may have different requirements. The Auditor's Office requires a letter confirming the location of the kennel meets local zoning regulations before a kennel license will be issued for the first time.

Cost of a kennel license is $70.00 per year as long as the license is renewed by January 31, this includes 5 dog licenses. After January 31 there is a $70.00 penalty for all renewals. Up to 5 additional licenses may be purchased for $1.00 each.

Ranger,
Other ordinances apply to "kennels".  Here is the way the City of Middletown defines a kennel:
 

§ 1288.01 (52) KENNEL. Any structure or premises on which five or more animals, over four months of age, are kept.

I believe you can't have more than 3 or 4 dogs per house.
I'm sure you can call City Hall and get an answer.

Never heard of a city limiting the number of pets one can own at a private residence. Have heard of restrictions placed on renters by landlords as number of pets or a no pets at all rule. Would imagine that if the number became a health threat or nuisance to neighbors, the city would intervene. ]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 10:10:05 +0000 http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4902&PID=35885&title=pet-limit#35885 Pet limit? : lol...well let's start with... http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4902&PID=35884&title=pet-limit#35884 Author: rngrmed
