(KNZA)--The Hiawatha City Commission has approved new pet license and impoundment fees.
The Commission Monday evening approved an ordinance establishing the new fees.
City Clerk Lynette Grier recommended that the fees be increased to account for the higher costs the city is incurring. The fees have not been increased since they were set in 2007.
The annual pet registration fee will increase to $10. The fee for a duplicate pet tag will increase to $5.00 and animal impoundment fee will increase to $50.
Residents are required to license their pets with the city each year.
