Pet licensing replaced with pet ID requirement
Herriman City
Summary
Only about 3.6% of pet owners license their animals, and the program costs more to run than it brings in. The proposed swap would require rabies shots and some form of ID — collar tag, microchip, or phone number — and will return as a formal ordinance.
