ITEM TITLE:

Title

Motion 25-392, approving Release and Indemnity Agreement for transfer of Sheriff’s Office K9-Sully

body

DEPARTMENT:  Sheriff’s Office

 

ORIGINATOR:  Pauline Sanders

 

EXECUTIVE RECOMMENDATION:  Approved by Ken Klein 8/19/25

 

PURPOSE: Agreement for Transfer of Police Service Dog - Sully

 

                     BACKGROUND: The Sheriff’s Office uses trained police dogs to assist in fulfilling its mission.

                     From time to time, these dogs live past their useful life as police K-9 and are retired.

                     Sometimes, County employees or retired County employees, as in this case, offer to accept the dog and be responsible for its care, condition and actions after it is delivered.

                     K-9 Sully is being retired from service with the Snohomish Regional Drug Task Force.

                     This agreement provides for liability protection for the County after the sale or transfer.

                     Since K-9 Sully is considered personal property of the County, and there is no provision in the County Code that allows sale or transfer of personal property to a County employee, this agreement must be approved by Council.
