As last I left you I couldn't get a response from Cabarrus County Animal Control so I contacted the County Sheriff (Brad Riley) through his email address on the Sheriff's website.
He was very quick with his response and had a Lieutenant call me within an hour to get the requirements straight. Come to find out I don't need a NCWRC permit as stated on the website I went to and the hours of operation were clarified.
Now for the kicker, the good Sheriff emailed (within 3 hours) and asked where I had gotten the erroneous information so I sent him the link I used to access the Animal Control site (NOT the link from his page) Through several ensuing emails we managed to figure out that there was more than one Animal Control website and that the one I had entered was through my search engine, Bing, and contained bad information being disseminated to the public. He was adamant that the Bing site would be immediately taken down since it had NOT been authorized by his department. (all within a 4 hour span of time)
Throughout then entire encounter (about a 6 hour timeframe) the Sheriff was very prompt with responses and was more than curious where the bad info came from and committed to taking the Bing site down to alleviate future issues. All in all a VERY positive interaction with an elected official that seems to be honestly interested in solving a problem, how refreshing!!
