Whenever any dog licensed hereunder is, in either the written opinion of the pound master or of the City Council of said city filed with the City Clerk of said city, vicious, dangerous or apt to bite or injure any person or persons, and is kept in such manner as to constitute an apparent menace to any person or persons in said city, such dog may be immediately impounded by the pound master or his duly authorized agents, representatives or assistants. As soon as reasonably possible after any such dog is so impounded, or said written opinion is - 11 - filed with said Clerk, the owner or owners of such dog, or the person or persons harboring such dog, or the person or persons to whom such license for such dog was issued or any person whose name appears therein, shall be notified (either person- ally or by registered mail addressed to such person, or persons, at the address shown in such license) of the fact of such im- pounding or of the filing of such written opinion and that such person or any person interested may appear at a hearing before said Council at a meeting of such Council to be specified in such notice (such notice of hearing shall be served at least 48 hours prior to the time of such meeting) and show cause if any such person has, or such persons have, why such dog should not be destroyed. Such notification shall also contain or have attached thereto a copy of any such opinion so filed, if any. Upon such hearing said Council shall hear all persons who ap- pear and desire to be heard, and shall thereupon decide wheth- er such dog shall be released, destroyed or otherwise disposed of, and its decision after such hearing shall be final and con- clusive. Said Council hereby finds and determines that the reservation of the right and power hereinabove made is neces- sary in order to protect the public peace, health and safety of said city, and of its inhabitants, not only on account of physical danger and vicious and dangerous dogs, but also from the standpoint of the suppression and combatting of the ever present menace of rabies. SECTION 25. In order to accommodate the public of said City and to expedite the issuance of licenses hereunder, the City Clerk of said city is hereby authorized, subject to the general authority of the pound master, to issue at the office of said Clerk in the City Hall any license contemplated under this ordinance. - 12 - SECTION 26.

Any such fowl may be redeemed by the person entitled to such fowl upon payment to the pound master of any damages as above contem- plated (which damages shall be paid to the person who or whose property was damaged), plus an impounding fee of 50¢ and a charge of 25¢ per day for the keep of each such fowl. Any fowl not redeemed within three (3) days after the impounding thereof, shall be sold or otherwise disposed of by the poundmaster in such manner as to the pound master at the time shall seem best. All impounding and keep fees collected under this section, shall be the property of said city, unless otherwise stated in any contract made under the provisions of this ordinance. The pound master, unless some other person be specified so to do in any such contract shall keep an accurate and appropriate record of all fowls impounded and of the dis- position thereof and of the fees collected in connection therewith. The pound master shall provide at the cost of said city subsistence for all such fowls during the impoundment thereof, unless otherwise specified in any contract awarded under this ordinance. SECTION 27. In the event a license fee higher than I. the fee provided in this ordinance has been paid for any dog r` L license for the current year in which this ordinance takes effect, the excess of such payment over the fee herein pre- scribed for such license, may be refunded upon the filing and allowance of a proper demand therefor. - 13 - SECTION 28. If any section, subsection, sentence, clause or phrase of this ordinance is for any reason held to be invalid or unconstitutional, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this ordinance. The Council of the City of E1 Segundo hereby declares that it would have passed this ordinance, and each section, subsection, sen- tence, clause and phrase thereof, irrespective of the fact that any one or more other sections, subsections, sentences, clauses or phrases be declared invalid or unconstitutional.
