Whenever it shall be affirmed in writing by three or more persons having separate residences or regularly employed in the neighborhood that any dog, animal, poultry or household pet is a habitual nuisance by reason of howling, barking or other noise, or is in any other manner causing undue annoyance, the poundmaster, if he or she finds such nuisance to exist, shall serve notice upon the owner or custodian that such nuisance shall be abated or the animal shall be impounded. If such nuisance and annoyance cannot be successfully abated and the poundmaster determines it necessary to impound such dog, animal, poultry or household pet, he or she shall not permit the reclaiming or redemption of such to the owner or custodian unless adequate arrangements have been made by the owner or custodian to ensure abatement of the annoyance or nuisance. (Prior code § 4001.1)
