§ 30-44. Guard dogs.

Any person causing guard dogs to be harbored or kept on a premises shall cause notice of the presence of said guard dogs to be posted conspicuously on the premises. Said notice shall consist of reflective decals or placards in such form as shall be approved or supplied by the Chief Fire Marshal. Said decals or placards shall be placed in locations specified by the Division of Fire Prevention and shall not be considered signs under other chapters of the Code of the Town of Brookhaven. In addition, said person shall notify the Chief Fire Marshal and the local Fire Department having jurisdiction over his premises of the fact that guard dogs are present on the premises and shall give to said Chief Fire Marshal and local Fire Department the name and phone number of a person to be contacted in the event of an emergency during such times as no employees are present at the premises. When services of guard dogs are no longer required, the Chief Fire Marshal and the Fire Department affording protection shall be notified, and the placard shall be removed and, if supplied by the Division of Fire Prevention, shall be surrendered to said Division.
