DOTHAN, Ala. (WDNews) — Dothan city commissioners tabled a vote Tuesday on an animal shelter contract with Wiregrass Pets, requesting more information about the monthly cost.
City Manager Randy Morris said the city negotiated a flat monthly fee because charging by the day for each animal would cost more.
“This particular cost per month is a flat fee, the cost of a per day fee was going to be higher for the amount of animals we have taken in and the public takes in from the city so we negotiated this fee with them,” Morris said.
Commissioners agreed to postpone the decision. They will receive additional information about the cost before voting on the contract.
