Sec. B31-58. Issuance of license.

(a) Upon payment of the license fee and presentation of a valid certificate of rabies vaccination by a duly licensed doctor of veterinary medicine, the Manager shall issue a license which identifies:

(1) The name and residence of the person to whom the license is issued;

(2) The amount paid;

(3) The date of issuance thereof;

(4) The date of expiration of the vaccination;

(5) A description of the cat for which the license is issued.

(b) With each cat license, the Manager shall issue a metal tag bearing an identifying number and the words "Santa Clara Co. Cat Lic.". Each cat shall wear the metal tag issued for it at all times except when being shown at a cat show, exhibition or event. In the event it is necessary to issue a duplicate tab, a fee, fixed by resolution of the Board of Supervisors, shall be charged to the owner/guardian. It shall be unlawful for any person to attach a metal tag issued pursuant to this subsection to any cat other than the cat for which it was issued. In lieu of the metal tag, the Manager may allow use of the transponder identification chip, provided that the chip has been approved by the Manager and has been inserted in the cat according to the manufacturer's specifications.

(c) Notwithstanding Subsection (a) above, the Manager may refuse to issue or renew a license when such refusal is deemed reasonably necessary to protect public health, safety and property.

(Ord. No. NS-300.745, § 1, 5-2-06)
