TRUCK ARRIVED AT 9:50AM; DOGS STARTED BARKING AND COULD BE HEARD TWO PROPERTIES AWAY. 10:00AM WENT TO DAWG HOUSE TO SEE OWNER. THE DOGS NEVER STOPPED BARKING. THE OWNERS WERE NOT THERE, BUT THE CARETAKERS WERE. ASKED THEM TO TRY AND QUIET THE DOGS DOWN AND LET THEM KNOW THAT THEY WERE IN VIOLATION. THE SHERIFF OFFICE HAS ALREADY ISSUED A WARNING CITATION (000976) TO THE OWNER WITH NO SPECIFIC TIME FOR COMPLIANCE. THIS WAS ISSUED ON 4/1/07. THERE HAS BEEN PLENTY OF TIME FOR THE OWNER TO GET OR AT LEAST TRY TO GET COMPLIANCE. THE OWNER HAS PLACED A SOLID BLOCK FENCE ON THE NORTH, EAST, SOUTH AND PART WAY ON THE WEST SIDES OF THE KENNELS. THE MAIN COMPLAINANT LIVES ON THE WEST SIDE OF THE VIOLATORS PROPERTY. TODAYS WEATHER SHOWS THAT THE WIND IS FROM THE EAST/NORTHEAST AT ABOUT 12-16 MPH. THIS PLACES THE COMPLAINANT DOWN WIND OF THE BARKING. SINCE A WARNING CITATION HAS BEEN ISSUED BY THE SHERIFF OFFICE AND THE WORKER ADMITTED THAT THEY DID GET IT,A VIOLATION CITATION WILL BE ISSUED FOR THE NOISE VIOLATION TO THE PROPERTY OWNER. CONTACT WAS MADE WITH THE COMPLAINANT VIA PX, HE WAS EXPLAINED THE DIFFRENCE BETWEEN LAW ENFORCEMENT AND CODE ENFORCEMENT. THE PROCEDURES FOR CODE ENFORCEMENT VERSE SHERIFF OFFICE. WILL GATHER ALL INFO NEEDED FOR THE CITATION AND ISSUE IN THE VERY NEAR FUTURE.
