The City recently received the annual Animal Care Notice of Intent to <br />continue with these services for FY 2013-14. The contract amount for this period is estimated to <br />be $1,068,799, which represents an increase of 5% over the current agreement. This is the first <br />budget increase for these services since fiscal year 2008-09. The projected expense is based on <br />the County's estimate of our utilization of their services and may end up being less if actual fee <br />revenues come in higher than expected. Staff continues to evaluate other shelters throughout <br />the county and the Orange County Animal Care facility is the only one that can meet our shelter <br />and impound needs. Orange County Animal Car continues to provide these services in a <br />satisfactory manner. <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br />Funds are available in the Police Department's Animal Services contract services account <br />(account no 01114430 62300). <br />APPROVED AS TO FUNDS AND ACCOUNTS: <br />:c <br />Carlos Rojas <br />Acting Chief of Police <br />Police Department <br />Francisco Gutierrez <br />Executive Director <br />Finance & Mgmt Services Agency <br />25A-1 <br />01/
