Steps
- The applicant/requestor may submit a letter to the Silver City Police Department requesting consideration and inspection for the purpose of receiving a livestock license/permit. The request can also be made verbally to the Animal Control Officer for the Silver City Police Department. If the applicant/requestor chooses not to submit a letter or a verbal request then the person may obtain the appropriate document from the Silver City Police Department or from the Town of Silver City website.
- Upon receipt of the request, the Animal Control Officer will set up a date and a time with the applicant/requestor to conduct an inspection to determine compliance.
- If the applicant/requestor is not in compliance, the Animal Control Officer will provide the appropriate information to the applicant/requestor for the purpose of becoming compliant with the ordinance. Notification will be provided both verbally and in writing. The applicant/requestor will be given 15 working days to come into compliance at which time a follow-up inspection will be conducted. If the applicant/requestor is in compliance with the ordinance then a permit will be issued to be renewed yearly.
- If the applicant/requestor has failed to comply or remove the livestock after the 15-day period then the applicant/requestor may be subject to receiving a citation for violation of the ordinance.
