Proposed Amendments to the City's Aggressive Dog Ordinance In April of 2014, the City Council established an Ad Hoc Committee to determine what amendments to the existing aggressive dog ordinance should be proposed.

Working with City staff, Los Angeles County i Department of Animal Care and Control officials and the City Attorney, the Ad Hoc Committee has developed j amendments to the Aggressive Dog Ordinance for the City Council's consideration. To view the proposed Ordinance, please visit our Web site at www.rolling-hills.org.

Do you have dead trees or overgrown dry brush on your property, including in the canyons? If so, they should be removed for your benefit and the benefit of others. Dead and dry vegetation are fuel for a fire, susceptible to sparks and embers and ripe for ignition. With current drought conditions, now is the time to act. Diseased trees could infect and ultimately destroy other trees; take great care when removing them. In addition, removing vegetation from canyons requires careful observation of the soil condition, and consideration of proximity to a natural drainage course or a blue line stream.

Typhus Fever on flthe PV Peninsula According to the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health (DPH), there has been an emergence of Typhus Fever on the Palos Verdes Peninsula in r'. the past year. This disease is typically transmitted to humans from fleas on Norway rats, opossums and feral cats. The symptoms of Typhus Fever are similar to that of a severe flu, but the disease is readily treatable with the appropriate antibiotic therapy. A resident reported to City Hall that she was recently released from the hospital after being exposed to flea -borne Typhus Fever. DPH has not received report of any confirmed cases in residents of Rolling Hills specifically, but because there are documented cases on the Peninsula, it is likely that the risk of Typhus Fever is already present in the City or will emerge soon, because there are populations of opossums and feral cats in Rolling Hills.

Allen Lay Jeff Pieper Issue IV& 14-06 WARNING: Rattlesnake Reminder With the recent Spring like weather, tresidents may see rattlesnake activity :1 slightly earlier this year than in previous years. Remember to use caution when moving things around in the yard or in garages, as snakes like to hide in dark places. Snakes are fascinating creatures, but remember to keep your distance. Keep the canyons titter and manure free I Is your property adjacent to a canyon? Do you t i hike or walk in the canyons? Your answer is 1 probably yes to one or both of those questions. t a. -, Did you know the canyons serve as natural waterways during storms and rains. It is very important to keep debris, excess green waste, manure and trash out of them. Such items not only block the waterway, they may also result in the unintentional transporting of the waste to the ocean where they pollute. Moreover, the City could be cited for pollutants that enter the storm water system. Another way to help keep the canyons litter free is to be conscious not to litter and to pick up any litter you may see along a roadway or on a trail. A little extra effort helps the Community and the waterways. r--4 SAVE THE DATE.... Dog /Cat Vaccination Clinic & Dog Licensing Clinic 1.
