in respect to the administration and enforcement of said Dog Law and

784, No. 225; see now 3 P.S. § 459-101 et seq.
Said Animal Control Officer shall be under the control and jurisdiction
of the Chief of Police and shall be deemed his agent for the purpose
of disposition of dogs.
Said Animal Control Officer shall have the further duty and
responsibility of enforcing any Municipality of Monroeville ordinances
relating to the control of animals, birds or fowl. Said Animal Control
Officer shall not have any other duties, authority or responsibility
of a police officer of the Municipality of Monroeville.
The Mayor shall prescribe a uniform and badge which may be worn
by the Animal Control Officer, and said officer shall be entitled
to the same uniform cost allowance as is provided for regular police
officers of the Municipality of Monroeville.
[Amended 7-8-1997 by Ord.
