Technical inspections have pointed out that the site faces problems such as compromised structure, failures in waste disposal and absence of effective policies for population control. Reports of the Technical Support Center (NAT) showed that the situation poses risks to public health and fails to comply with sanitary standards.
The MPAC also highlighted the lack of initiatives by the government to contain the increase in the population of homeless dogs. Data from the Municipal Health Secretariat show significant growth of these animals on public roads, raising sanitary and environmental risks.

Given the scenario, the action proposes a series of measures, including the reform of the Zoonosis Center, the hiring of trained professionals, the creation of a permanent castration program and improvements in waste management. In addition, suggests educational campaigns to make the population aware of the responsible possession of animals.
With this initiative, MPAC seeks to ensure that the municipality adopts concrete measures to solve the problem and ensure adequate conditions for the operation of the Zoonoses Center.
