GRANITE SHOALS — Complaints about controlling wild animals is prompting a new look at city laws, but the police chief is warning his department isn't a pest-control service.
"(In the past) we were getting calls from people with rats in their homes — and cockroaches," said Chief J.P. Wilson during a sometimes heated City Council meeting Dec. 13. "We can't become the Granite Shoals pest control."
Any substantive changes could spell extra costs for certification and licensing of animal-control personnel, City Manager Judy Miller added.
