In addition to any other legal remedies available, under the provisions of this chapter, in case of noncompliance with any applicable ordinance, the designated animal control agent for the city may order and direct in writing and by personal service the owner or custodian of any pot-bellied pig to abate and remove such animal from the City of Vancouver within ninety-six hours of the date and hour of service of such order. Such order shall state the method of appealing the order in the manner provided for in Section 8.24.280 and notwithstanding the appeal period set forth in Section 8.24.280 shall bear the notation that any appeal must be filed before the closure of business of the city’s designated animal control agent on the second business day following service of the order. If such animal is found within the City of Vancouver after ninety-six hours have elapsed from the date and hour of service of the order, such animal may be apprehended and removed by the animal control agent and disposed of immediately with no right of redemption by any person; provided, that if a timely appeal from the summary order to abate is filed, such animal shall not be disposed of unless and until such order is affirmed; and provided further, that in no event shall such animal be disposed of until the appeal period has expired. (Ord. M-3027 § 7, 1992; Ord. M-4043, Amended, 02/25/2013, Sec 23 - Effective 03/29/2013)
