News Release
County working to restore animal control, code enforcement service levels - 06/18/18

Vancouver, Wash. – Clark County is coping with an unexpected, temporary reduction in Animal Protection and Control and Code Enforcement service levels.

The county continues to provide animal licensing and is working diligently to restore previous levels of animal control service.

The county is focused on meeting the immediate demands of summer weather and Independence Day activities, both of which can be stressful and harmful for animals. Over the next several weeks, Animal Protection and Control officers and an after-hours service provider working for the county will increase enforcement and outreach activities.

Summer weather and July 4 activities also can heighten fire danger. Code Enforcement officers will make it a priority to respond to complaints about accumulated dried weeds. 

“It is our hope to have full service levels restored by mid-August,” said Mitch Nickolds, interim Community Development director.
