Survey solicits public’s help with shelter audit
Monday, October 31, 2022 by Tai Moses
As you may have read in the Monitor, the city auditor’s office is engaged in an audit of Austin’s Animal Services Office, as directed by a Council resolution passed in July. Community engagement is a major component of the audit, and that means it’s critical for you, citizen, to offer your input to help the audit team “get an understanding on what the community views as the biggest areas of concern regarding animal services.” The next virtual meeting will be held on WebEx on Wed., Nov. 2, from 6:30 to 8 p.m. Can’t attend the meeting? Take the online survey. The survey is brief – just six questions – and is primarily focused on gathering public opinion to help the auditors identify an outside expert to collaborate on the audit. The third and final public engagement meeting is coming up on Thursday, Nov. 10, 6:30-8 p.m., at the City Hall Boards & Commissions Room, 301 W. Second St.
