After a few years of problems and audits at the city's animal shelter, Council will look at a multipronged effort to improve operations there. The changes will clarify reporting requirements and impound procedures and deal with public safety and the safety of employees. The changes are supported by the city's union for the protections they will offer and, hopefully, because they will help address persistent staffing issues that have plagued the Animal Services Office.
Council will also consider a number of state tax credits for affordable housing. Though the city has no power to approve the financing, the city's support does count toward its ultimate approval in what is a highly competitive process.
