Town, resident reach accord over barking violations

UPTON

The town has reached an agreement with dog owner Brendan M. Perry of 57 South Street that will keep both parties out of court.

Selectmen voted last spring to banish Perry's six dogs from the town, citing over 100 barking complaints received by police. Perry appealed the order, and selectmen agreed that Perry could keep three of the dogs as long as they are equipped with anti-barking devices and kept indoors between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m.
