Council hearing debates new regulations for pit bulls | Lynn Journal
Pit bull owners beware – new regulations are about to be put into place by the Lynn City Council.
The regulations will actually be new restrictions with the effort being all about reducing the number of violent pit bull attacks in the city.
A spate of pitbull attacks in recent weeks and months has served to highlight the public debate about new efforts to control the dogs and to make their owners responsible for dogs, which the council believes, are overtly aggressive and generally dangerous to the public at large.
Councillors led by Council President Tim Phelan wrote the ordinance last month following two pitbull attacks that sent two victims to the hospital, including a 6 month old.
“We are compelled to do something meaningful to keep our streets safe for children, the elderly, for everyone who might ostensibly become the victim of a pit bull attack – and that’s really all of us,” said Phelan.
The proposed new ordinance specifies that pit bulls are dangerous animals with powerful instincts for dominance and unyielding aggressiveness.
