Multnomah County Launches Animal Services Review

(Portland, OR) -- Multnomah County Commission Chair Jessica Vega Pederson is ordering a detailed review of the county's animal services agency. On Vega Pederson's first day in office last month, she was told about major problems in animals services. There weren't enough workers and too many animals. The shelter stopped taking strays for about a week while it streamlined operations and brought on community volunteers. The review will consider previous audits, community feedback, and develop a plan for accomplishing recommendations that'll be considered by the board of commissioners.
