(1)

Any violation of any provision of a county resolution adopted pursuant to this part 1 not involving bodily injury to any person is a petty offense. If authorized by the county resolution, the penalty assessment procedure provided in section 16-2-201 may be followed by an animal control officer or any arresting law enforcement officer for any such violation. As part of said county resolution authorizing the penalty assessment procedure, the board of county commissioners may adopt a graduated fine schedule for violations of said resolution not involving bodily injury to any person. Such graduated fine schedule may provide for increased penalty assessments for repeat offenses by the same individual.

(2)

Any offense involving bodily injury to any person by a dog or other pet animal shall be a class 2 misdemeanor, and any violator shall be punished as provided in section 18-1.3-501, C.R.S., for each separate offense.

(3)

Whenever a county animal control officer has probable cause to believe that a violation of subsection (1) or (2) of this section, of the county’s dog control and licensing resolution, or of the county’s resolution concerning the control of pet animals has been committed, the officer may issue a citation or summons and complaint to the violator, stating the nature of the violation with sufficient particularity to give notice of said charge to the violator.
