Kansas City council moves to reclaim animal control from privatized KC Pet Project after fatal dog attack.

The family of Chris Culbertson, who was killed by dogs in Kansas City, Missouri, is pushing for the city to take back control of animal services from the privatized KC Pet Project. The Kansas City Council committee unanimously passed a resolution giving the city manager 30 days to create a plan to bring animal control in-house, amid concerns over reduced citations and issues with staffing and response times. KC Pet Project is opposing this move, aiming to retain its contract.
