KANSAS CITY, Mo. — KC Pet Project will take full control of Kansas City, Missouri’s animal control services beginning on Tuesday.
KCPP has been in a three-month transitional period and will respond to all 311 calls regarding animal health and public safety services, according to a news release.
Deletta Dean, deputy director of the Neighborhood and Housing Services Department, said in the release that the city “will monitor KCPP’s performance to ensure that our residents continue to receive the full range of animal services in an even more efficient manner.”
At least 15 animal health officers were hired to respond to calls 24/7.
The KCMO City Council approved the contract with KCPP in July.
