(Note from Albert Countryman, GCN Editor: Due to poor fact checking on my part, there were inaccuracies in last week\’s article concerning the recent Gloucester City Council meeting.. The Gloucester City News apologizes for these mistakes, and any confusion or misunderstanding they have created.)
By Albert J. Countryman Jr.
Gloucester City Council approved an ordinance on second reading during its March 27 meeting limiting the number of pets per household to three.
Also, all dogs and cats must be on a leash while outside.
Those residents who currently own more than three pets will be grandfathered.
Also, last week\’s article was wrong about proposed four-way stops at various intersections.
The intention of the ordinance, passed on first reading, is to \”both calm traffic and address dangerous intersections,\” Mayor William James said.
The article indicated this as a solution to problems on Market Street, which was incorrect.
The ordinance provides for all-way stops at the following intersections:
North Brown and Middlesex streets; Johnson Boulevard and Chambers Avenue; Essex Street and Collings Road; Park Avenue and Klemm, Station and Reading avenues; Park and Gehrig avenues; King and Essex streets; King and Hudson streets; King and Market streets; King Street, Jersey Avenue and Water Street; Burlington and Middlesex streets; Burlington and Cumberland streets; Sussex and Somerset streets; Lane and Powell streets; Thompson and Harley avenues; Greenwood and Park avenues; and Atlantic Avenue and Cumberland Street.
