Dog Wardens/Police to Conduct License, Rabies Compliance Checks

The State Dog Wardens and the Columbia Borough Police will   be conducting compliance checks during the Month of April.   Officers will canvass homes to ensure that dogs have a current license and rabies vaccination.
The Police as well as the State Dept. of Agriculture    remind dog owners that a license is one of the best ways to ensure a lost dog is returned home safely.    Under PA law, all dogs three months or older must be licensed by January 1 of each year.  Violators can be cited with a maximum fine of $300 per violation plus court costs.
Licenses may be purchased through Treasurer Ebersole at 150 N. Queen St, Ste 122, Lancaster or by calling 717-299-8222. For more information, visitwww.licenseyourdogPA.com or call 717-787-3062.
Borough Offices: 308 Locust Street, Columbia PA 17512 | Phone: 717-684-2467

Park signs - the rest of the story



There are three more signs in Locust Street Park - in addition to the one pictured in yesterday's post. Two are similar to the sign shown previously, and one contains slightly different wording. These photos are from a previous blog post that can be found here:

Locust Street Park regulations now enforced

A local resident points to the regulations for Locust Street Park to remind police to patrol and enforce. Warmer weather is on tap for this coming week, which will encourage people to congregate in the park, and last year saw a lot of vandalism there. At its November 10, 2014 meeting, Columbia Borough Council voted unanimously to give police enforcement powers in the park.

 These flags are even worse this time. Are they symbols of our divided nation and revisionist history?
