DISCUSSION of the Council to execute the attached purchase Officer Saunders for the sale of a retired Santa Ana to non -substantive changes approved by the City On February 7, 2018, Officer Randy Saunders, after serving for 26 years, retired from the Santa Ana Police Department after being assigned to the K-9 Unit. His assigned canine, Renzo, is ten years old, the average retirement age for police service dogs. At Renzo's age, it would be impractical to reassign Renzo to a new canine handler to attend the Basic Handlers Course before being put back in service. During their assignment as a K-9 team, Renzo has lived with Officer Saunders for over seven years. As Renzo retires, Officer Saunders wishes to purchase Renzo for the standard fee of $1. Officer Saunders will assume ownership and full responsibility for the care, maintenance, food, housing, medical and any other expenses that arise out of Officer Saunders' ownership of Renzo. It is recommended that the agreement between Retired Officer Saunders and the City of Santa Ana be approved. 55A-1
