Homewood board approves higher fines for off-leash pets


The Homewood Village Board approved an ordinance on Nov. 11 raising the minimum fine for dogs and cats running at-large. 

The updated fines increase the minimum penalty from $25 to $150 minimum, with the maximum being $750. Homewood Chief of Police Denise McGrath said the change applies to any dog or cat found off its owner’s property without a leash or without being under the direct control of its owner.
