[Adopted 6-16-1958 by Ord. No. 687]
[Amended 10-16-1961 by Ord. No. 754]
A.
After compliance with the statute in such case made
and provided, and particularly with N.J.R.S. 4:19-15.16, the Chief
of Police of the City of Hackensack, or such person as may be authorized
by him in such behalf, may, instead of causing an impounded dog or
dogs to be destroyed, surrender the same to a responsible citizen
and taxpayer of the City of Hackensack, which person may place such
dog or dogs in a suitable home.
B.
In the event that a responsible citizen and taxpayer of the City of Hackensack has not evidenced a desire for the delivery and custody of such impounded dog or dogs and a responsible nonresident expresses a willingness to provide a suitable home for the animal, then, subject to the time limitations as stated in N.J.R.S. 4:19-15.16, the Chief of Police or such person as he may designate under the provisions of Subsection A above may, upon compliance by such nonresident with this Article, in the same manner as herein provided for by a Hackensack resident, surrender the animal to such nonresident.
[Amended 10-16-1961 by Ord. No. 754]
In the event that any individual desires to
obtain a dog or dogs impounded and in custody as aforesaid, such individual
shall make written application to the Chief of Police and said application
shall state:
Should any person acquiring a dog or dogs aforesaid
cause said dog or dogs to be placed elsewhere other than in the home
of the applicant, the person acquiring such dog or dogs shall immediately,
in writing, notify the Chief of Police of the City of Hackensack as
to the name and address of the person or persons in whose hands the
said dog or dogs are to be placed.
Upon delivery of said dog or dogs, the recipient
shall execute to the City of Hackensack an instrument in writing releasing
the City of Hackensack from any and all liability by reason of the
surrender of the dog or dogs and setting forth that such surrender
and delivery shall not be construed to constitute transfer of any
title in and to said dog or dogs, and any and all legal rights of
any and all owners of said dog or dogs are specifically reserved.
