Description

I posted a complaint on the city's SeeClickFix site. I received this response:

"This type of complaint cannot be handled via this system. Please contact Animal Control by calling 402-441-7900."

Contrary to instructions on this site, calling 402-441-7900 does NOTHING AT ALL.

I called Animal Control at that number, talked to "Mike." He refused to do anything unless we first indicate we are willing to "take the owners to court," they refuse to do anything at all, not even contact the offenders. I've run into this before with Animal Control in Lincoln. Now I must again contact city government to let them know that there is a problem with response at Animal Control. If they don't respond to complaints, what do they do in that department?

This is a PROBLEM if Animal Control does not respond to barking dog complaints. Who should we contact from now on? The police? The mayor's office?
