SUMMARY: Friday's morning highs in Meridian are expected to reach the 70s. The city is now offering a microchip pet identification and registration program, required for all pet owners. The program, passed as an ordinance by the city council, is intended to help locate lost pets through a national database. Animal Control Supervisor Brian McCary encourages the public to adhere to this new regulation. Cats and dogs over three months old are eligible to receive microchips for a $5 registration fee. The microchip contains a unique sequence of numbers that can help identify and locate pets if they become lost or stolen.

Crossing guards and officers have noticed some change, but many drivers are still not slowing down. Over 400 speeding violations have been recorded in the first two weeks of the pilot program, with some drivers going well over the 50 mph speed limit. Despite plea from officers to slow down and be mindful of crossing guards and children, some drivers continue to speed.
