RECOMMENDED ACTION
Direct the City Attorney to prepare and authorize the City Manager and the
Clerk of the Council to execute an agreement with the County of Orange to
provide animal care shelter services.
DISCUSSION
On January 6, 2003, the Council approved actions for the City's transition
of operating its own shelter to the County of Orange Animal Shelter as a
contracted service. At that time, City staff evaluated several options to
provide animal care shelter services. It was determined that contracting
with the Orange County Shelter was the most cost effective means of
providing quality service to the City.
The provisional contract amount for FY 2006-2007 is $504,280. The City
will be given a credit of $100,028 from FY 2004-2005 and FY 2005-2006 from
the County due to the reduced number of animals entering the shelter as
well as increased revenue from adoptions that offset our costs. The County
has implemented a master plan to address facility improvements that cannot
be postponed. The City of Santa Ana's portion for these facility
improvements is estimated at $31,744. The total projected agreement amount
is $359,384. The total actual payments to the County of Orange will be
based on actual usage of the services. The County of Orange Animal Shelter
has performed satisfactorily and staff recommends approval of the
agreement.
