Overland Park says it’s one of a few Kansas City area communities with a dangerous dog ordinance that specifically bans pit bulls and similar dogs. However, a City Council committee is considering whether a change is in order. After advocates asked the Public Safety Committee to eliminate the breed-specific language, committee members agreed to study the issue through the summer. “We understand there are many members of the community very passionate about this issue,” said committee chair Paul Lyons. “We are interested in your input on whether or not you would support eliminating the breed-specific dog ban.”
