The current three- year agreements with the cities expire on June 30, 2000. Staff has been negotiating with the agencies on a new multi-year agreement. However, due to a number of changes that will be required in the new agreements, including state mandates which have changed requirements for holding periods, veterinary care and spay and neutering, additional work needs to be completed prior to the new agreements being finalized.. In order to be able to continue to provide services to the contract cities in the interim, an amendment to the current contract is required. RESOURCE IMPACT Contract costs have been increased to recover the full cost of services and to reflect changes in percent of animals handled, cost plan increase, and cost allocations in the Animal Services budget.
