Council authorizes drafting of animal-code changes to streamline shelter cooperation
Summary
Chief Berry said parts of the town code about animals are outdated; the council approved drafting ordinance changes to make working with a county-run shelter easier.
Chief Berry told the council that certain animal-code provisions are no longer relevant and that removing them would simplify coordination if Cochise County places a shelter in town. The council unanimously authorized the town attorney and staff to prepare ordinance amendments.
The motion to draft amendments was moved by Johann Wallace and seconded by Christy Hirshberg. Staff did not provide the exact language at the meeting; drafts will be prepared and returned to council for formal consideration and public notice prior to any adoption.
