In follow up and continuing efforts to keep the public notified of emergency changes in the Crisis in County Government press release October 22, 2009.
It has become necessary to prioritize and cut certain services in an effort to keep sworn Deputy Sheriffs positions.
We have identified a need to reduce service to Cascade County in response to Animal Control calls.
The Animal Control budget was presented to them in May, the first round budget proposal, it was cut as part of the Commissions demand we reduce our proposed budget by 1.8 million dollars.
Today I want to advise you that effective immediately we will only be responding to bite complaints and those animal calls that are evaluated by the shift supervisors as needing a response due to public safety reasons.
More will follow on this during our November 12 meeting at the Cascade County Sheriff/Coroner’s Office 3800 Ulm North Frontage Road at 6:30 PM.
Sheriff David L. Castle
