WHEREAS, one of the requirements of the war, in order that we may do
our full part, is to increase the production of all kinds of meat that can be cured
and shipped abroad to our armies and to the civil populations in the nations allied
with us, and
WHEREAS, there are many parts of the City of Pueblo where families
would be able to keep and fatten a pig largely from the scraps and waste of
kitchen without interfering with health or sanitary conditions, thereby helping to
increase pork production.
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of Pueblo, that permits to
keep a pig (not more than one pig at a time to any one Family) within the limits of
Pueblo be granted by the Department of Public Health to persons who apply
therefore and who show that they are so situated that their keeping of pig will not
be a considerable interference with others, and who agree to clean their pig pen
daily.
Provide that said permits shall be void thirty days after the close of the
present war, and further that said permits shall be revocable by the
Commissioner of Public Health if persons to whom they are granted fail to keep
their pig pens in a clean and sanitary condition, and that City Atty be instructed to
prepare an ordinance as near as may be lawful in accordance with this
resolution.
