There is a dead animal in the street, what should I do?

The Public Works Department will only remove dead animals on public property (curb, parkway, sidewalk, or street). Property owners are responsible for disposal of dead animals on private property. Dead animals may be bagged and disposed of with your regular trash.

If you have nuisance wildlife on your property, please contact a private animal control service.
