2.Public private vs public animal shelters
Animal control services throughout the State of Texas are some of the most
inconsistently managed funded and regulated services provided by government (cite). The two most common models are
public-private and public. The municipality or county contracts at least some responsibility to a third party
in the public-private model. The governmental entity is responsible for all aspects
of the animal service functions
includ
ing adoption and euthanasia under the public model.
The City of X contracts with the X Humane Society to provide shelter
ing services
in a public-private partnership. As the coord
inator of animal services for the City of X I would like to determ
ine;
• Are the citizens and animals of X best served us
ing this model?
• Is this the most cost effective model ?
• What would a the difference be
in cost and services if the city were to create a municipal shelter?
