body
DEPARTMENT: Auditor’s Office - Animal Services
ORIGINATOR: Connie Barndt
EXECUTIVE RECOMMENDATION: Ken Klein 10/25/22
PURPOSE: Motion to establish animal redemption and relinquish fees
BACKGROUND: SCC 9.12.110 and SCC 9.12.055 authorizes the Auditor to establish animal redemption and relinquish fees to recover costs associated with the impoundment and surrendering of animals. Cost recovery includes the care and boarding of the animal ($235 per animal charge from the contracted shelter) as well as apprehension, transportation and additional care costs if applicable. The shelter works with pet owners to find alternatives to surrendering animals to the shelter as there are other resources for residents to rehome dogs/cats.
