Councilman Bryant to sponsor legislation removing breed specific language Per City Council request from September 12, 2017; Councilman Don Bryant is sponsoring legislation to amend Mansfield’s breed specific component—section 505.03 which currently bans citizens from owning ‘Pit bulls’ in the City. This new amendment removes that breed specific language. Councilman Bryant is requesting final constituent input: comments, concerns, surveys, citizen petitions. You may send e-mails directly to me at: [email protected] or leave information on his office voicemail service: (419) 971-3662. If you would like the councilman to return your phone call, please indicate that in your message. A formal Safety Committee will be held on Tuesday, October 3rd at 6:30 pm in City Council chambers. If you wish to address the committee, please submit written testimonies by this Friday, September 29th by 3:30 PM. You may e-mail your statements or drop them off to the City Council office: 30 N. Diamond St. Mansfield, OH 44902 (3rd Fl). ##

I am a Cleveland area resident and a pit bull attack victim. The attack upon my horse and I figured into the passage of Lakewood’s current law. The pit bull that attacked us was brought into Lakewood after the attack, under fraudulent state documents, harbored in the bottom half of a rental property, directly across the street from a Lakewood school, by this time uninsured. When the true history of this dog was exposed it was ordered out of Lakewood. The risk of having a known violent dog in a densely populated city was outrageous and was considered when the Lakewood law was written in 2008. I'm sure Mansfield has similar stories.
