The city will foot its own bill, but can later choose to help cover Humane Society costs. Dogs caught will be checked, vaccinated, and then officially become the city’s responsibility for up to seven days before adoption or other decisions. Plus, a new feeding ban in the business district is being eyed to prevent interference — because feeding could derail the whole operation.
