Resident tells council he will reduce animals, council takes no action on barking-dog complaints
Resident Chris Lisk addressed the council about complaints concerning barking dogs at his home and told the council he is working to reduce the number of dogs and cats living at the property and will research barking collars for remaining animals.

Neighbors, the minutes say, indicated they are satisfied with Lisk’s plan. Council member Jim Gaines moved and Council member Steve Pfeifer seconded a motion that the council take no action at this time; the motion passed 4 ayes.

Context: While the meeting’s public‑comment heading initially records “No comments,” the transcript also records Lisk speaking and the council’s subsequent motion. The city took no enforcement action at this meeting; the resident indicated he will continue voluntary steps to address the nuisance.
