After workshops and budget requests, resident Roy Armstrong asked when the city's animal-control RFP will be issued and whether a county partnership was considered; procurement representative Ms. Carr said the RFP "has been reviewed. It will release on Wednesday," and confirmed the county could apply through the RFP process.

The full story

Roy Armstrong asked the council for a status update on the city's proposed request for proposals (RFP) covering animal control, impoundment and animal-welfare services. Armstrong recapped earlier workshops and budget requests that included a $20,000 feral cat TNR request and a roughly $300,000 request to continue current animal-control services excluding feral-cat work, and he said the current contract expires in about six weeks.
