The Council consensus appears to be that silence is golden, and as long as they are not being pestered with complaints, the costs are worth it. At a Council budget hearing on 4/25/2017, Council members had virtually no questions for the director of the Animal Services agency, Abigail Bingham, and her boss, David Trolio, head of the Department of Community Services.
