AN ACT RELATING TO ANIMALS AND ANIMAL HUSBANDRY -- DOGS

HB 7220 permits the town of Barrington to set an annual dog licensing fee of $7.00 per dog. This bill specifically amends the town's existing licensing fee authority under Chapter 4-13 (Dogs) to allow a $7 fee, directly affecting dog owners in Barrington who must pay this annual license. The bill does not change fees for other towns, which maintain their own existing fee structures. It is a procedural amendment awaiting final approval.
