SSB 1095 Iowa Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A bill for an act relating to county and city regulation of pet licenses and fees.

This bill (SSB 1095) prohibits Iowa counties and cities from imposing fees for pet licenses through local ordinances, resolutions, or amendments. It directly affects pet owners who would otherwise pay local fees to obtain a license. The key provision amends Iowa Code sections 331.301 (for counties) and 364.3 (for cities) to ban any local fee requirement for pet licensing. The bill does not address pet license requirements themselves, only the fee structure. It is a procedural change to prevent local governments from charging such fees.
