Council Plans 'Pooper-Scooper' Code

Dog owners beware: The Cambridge City Council last night declared war on impolite pets.

"Dog feces on sidewalks and in other public places constitute a serious risk to the public health and safety." Councilor David Sullivan stated in a resolution that was approved unanimously and without discussion last night.

The council ordered the city manager to draft a pooper-scooper ordinance for consideration at a future public hearing."

Under a "pooper-scooper" code, dog owners would be required to remove their dogs' feces from sidewalks and other public places.
