City commissioners agreed unanimously to start looking at dog ordinances with teeth.
Commissioner Karen Stephens brought copies of ordinances she found through Michigan Municipal League while attending a meeting in Lansing.
For the past two years, Stephens said she has received complaints from residents being chased by dogs.
Commissioners also directed City Manager Mike Hughes to check with the City of Elkhart about types of enforcement, including a vicious breed ordinance that’s been under discussion.
