Dear Sir
We are writing this letter in response to a news item regarding certain
people disposing of unwanted pets by dumping them in isolated areas to fend
for themselves. We understand that Article 416-46 of the Contra Costa
County code species a fine of not more than $50.00 for the first offense and
$100.00 for the second. We think that this is an atrocious crime and the
punishment far too lenient. Do not forget that this kind of person is also
inclined to be abusive to humans as well as animals. We are looking to the
County to make changes in this law.
Sincerely,
. f
Nick is /d a a ,et You
