SUMMARY OF ITEM
The City of Plano Animal Services (PAS) is a leader in animal welfare programs and has available resources that could positively impact other communities when their own programs are temporarily incapacitated. At some point, a disaster may result in PAS needing assistance from other jurisdictions. This Interlocal Agreement provides a way for help to be requested and given during situations where going through a lengthy approval process could result in unnecessary delays that could impact lives.
Strategic Plan Goal:
Financially Strong City with Service Excellence, Safe Large City, Partnering for Community Benefit
