City, county agree on animal control takeover; mayor has concerns
by Maria Vasquez | The Eloy Enterprise
The city will turn over its animal control operation to Pinal County next month.
On Sept. 16, the Pinal County Board of Supervisors approved a contract between Pinal County Animal Care and Control and the city of Eloy, in which the county will take over the city’s animal control services. Pinal Animal Control Director Audra Michael said the county will use the city’s facility and a city vehicle, and the city will pay the county.
Michael said the county has more resources and can provide better service, and plans to begin in Eloy on Oct. 1.
