Increase proficiency and expertise in working animal enforcement cases resulting in fewer dismissed cases
CURRENT ACTIONS:
Marcy and Tom Iandimarino, Code Enforcement Director, are working to identify a clear path forward through a review of DAS working
procedures
Identify job tasks assigned to ACOs not directly related to animal control enforcement and identify resources needed to transition back to
other DAS staff
Code Enforcement Director to participate in ride-alongs with ACOs to get an understanding of essential work functions
