The Committee reviewed Wisconsin State Statue §174.053 and discussed the need for this as there are residents currently owning and licensing more than 3 dogs. Our current ordinance allows for 3. The committee recommends establishing a multiple dog license with an initial issuance fee of $100 and an annual renewal fee of $100. Individual dog tags under the multiple dog license will be issued separately at a cost of $35 and include a tag for each dog up to 8. The license will apply to residents with a minimum of four (4) dogs and a maximum of eight (8) dogs, with no more than eight dogs permitted. The committee further recommends that if two written complaints are received within a one-year period, the  license holder will no longer be eligible for a multiple dog license. Any instance in which a dog is taken to the Humane Society will count as one complaint toward this total. The multiple dog license/permit must be signed and renewed annually. 7.
