Chattahoochee County votes to end Fort Benning stray‑animal facility contract
Summary
The Cusseta‑Chattahoochee County Commission voted unanimously Nov. 4 to end its contract with the Fort Benning stray‑animal facility after concluding the county could not meet the agreement's requirements; the county will issue the required notice and continue working with Fort Benning on the transition.
The Commission of the Unified Government of Cusseta‑Chattahoochee County voted unanimously Nov. 4 to end its contract with the Fort Benning stray‑animal facility. Commissioner Gerald Douglas moved to terminate the agreement; Commissioner Jason Frost seconded and the vote carried without dissent.
Minutes state the county cannot meet the contract requirements and will work with Fort Benning through the notice period. The action was recorded during the regular meeting; the commission entered a subsequent executive session for legal and land matters but indicated no votes were taken in closed session. The decision will affect the county's intergovernmental service arrangement for animal services while other IGSA (intergovernmental service agreements) relationships remain in place, according to the meeting record.
