Starting next year, Spring Hill residents will no longer be required to register their cats and dogs and pay a fee to do so. Mayor Steven Ellis raised the idea again in October after being called about a dog that had broken loose and bitten someone, causing a serious injury. The owner had never registered the animal. “This is a tax on responsible people,” Ellis told the City Council, adding that the fees generate a small amount of revenue compared to the cost of collecting them.
