Ordinance No. 18-001 An Ordinance Addressing Animal Noise Details: The City of Camas has existing statutory language in Camas Municipal Code (CMC) 6.08.140 that addresses dogs that habitually bark, whine or howl to a degree that it is disruptive to neighbors or creates a public nuisance. That language was declared unconstitutional by the Washington State Supreme Court in Spokane v. Fischer, 110 Wn. 2nd 541 (1988). A modification to the old language of CMC 6.08.140 will establish new standards to correct the deficiency, which must be met before enforcement can occur. Presenter: Pete Capell, City Administrator
