' -TEMS REQURNG APPROVA) BY THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMSSONERS: 1. 1 That the operaton of a Moble Spay/Neuter Clnc for Palm Beach County be formally approved. The Advsory Board, Pet Overpopu,la_ton Commttee and staff have -researched 1he concept of ntatng a moble spay/oel.ter clnc for Palm Beach County. All beleve that the ts mplmentaton wll have a ~ery postve effect on reducng the number of surplus dogs and cats n Palm Beach County. The 'goal s Q have the clnc operatonal by January 1996. Approval of ths concept wll ~crease the county employee complement by three: Veternaran, Veternary Assstant and Customer Clerk. 2. That the name of the Moble Spa)'/N~uter Clnc be desg~ated as the "SPAY SHUTTLE" and that the name and logo be reserved/re&stered _wth the State of Florda.. Staff and the varous ctzen commttees beleve that the ttle SPAY SHU7TLE s unque and creatvely descrbes the functon and operaton of the clnc. The County Attorney's Offce would be authorzed to regster/reserve the name ~nd logo wth the State of Florda. 3. That the Palm Beach County Dog/Cat Sterlzaton Reb~te Ordnance be repealed and that those funds be reallocated to the Moble Spay/Nl!uter Clnc budget. Staff s requestng that the funds allocated to the county Dog/Cat Sterlzaton Rebate program be renamed and allocated to \the Moble Spay/Neuter Clnc. t s the ntent of staff not to request an allocaton of county ad valorem tax aollars to operate the clnc, The revenue lo operate the unt wll come from donatons, grants, bequests and fees. The Sterlzaton Rebate Ordnance h~s operated snce 1982. Rebates of $20 (females) and $10 (males) were provded to ctzens for havng ther dogs/cats sterlzed. Nearly one mllon dollars supplemented the sterlzaton costs of over 52.000 pets. Fundng for ths program was derved from usng $4 frdm each non-sterlzed tag ($25) sold. Although ths program has been valuable over the past 12 years, most beleve that the program should be phased out. ln recent years, more dollars were rebated than collected. A 1993 survey revealed that 88.6 percent of users sad they would have ther anmals sterlzed even wthout the rebate. The prop_osed moble spay/neuter clnc wll be amed,., at reducng the dog/cat populaton from that segment of the human populaton who could not otherwse afford the sterlzaton costs for ther pet~. 4. That $1 from all sterlzed tags so,d and $5 from all non-sterzed tags sold be allocated to the Moble Spay/Neuter: Clnc budget begnnng June l, 1995. On May, 1995, tag fees wll ncrease. Tag fees for non-sterlzed dogs/cats wll ncrease from $25 to $27, whle tags for sterlzed anmals wll ncrease from $10 to $11. As stated n number 3 above, $4 from the non-sterlzed tag has been desgnated for the sterlzaton., R 95 627 a
- PBC Moble Spay/Nc111c~ Chmc l'3(!c4 - - rebate program. Ths proposal woutd allocate $1 from the $11 ~tcrlzed tag-.fcc and a total of $5 from the $27 non-sterlzed tag fee. The total revenue generated from ths method s estmated to.be $1]0,000- $150,000 per year. The annual operatng budget for the clnc s estma1ed1to be $150,000 - SK0,000 (not ncludng start-up costs). Orgnally, the local veternaran assocaton proposed rasng the veternaran tag handlng fee from $1 to $2.50. One dollar of that fee would then be desgnated to the Moble Spay/Neuter Clnc. As more thought was gven to that proposal, there _was n realzaton that there would be substantal logstcal dffcultes: a) the veternary assocaton docs not speak for all veternary offces n the county; b) the county would have the.burden of collectng the extra dollar and then gyng t to the veternary foundaton, only for the foundaton to return t to the Moble Clnc fund;.and c) the otal dollars rased from ths proposal would be less than $50,000 per year. : That the veternaran handlng fee for sellng dog/cat tags be ncreased from $1 to S.SO. The local veternaran assocaton was gracous to offer a sum of $1 from the proposed $2.50 handlng fee. The Veternary Assocaton s enthusastc about the Moble Spay/Neuter Clnc. The Veternary Foundaton wll be rasng funds to assst n the costs of operatng the county Moble Spay/Neuter Clnc. The veternaran handlng fee has not ncreased snce 1989. Staffs recommendng that, t be ncreased by$ SO (to St.SO) effect.ve June 1, 199S. The handlng fee s an addtonal charge to pet owners to defray the adrl"nstratve costs of veternarans for sellng county dog/cat tags to ther customers. Apprpxmately 00 veternary offces ssue rabes/lcense tags for the county. 6. That t_he dog/cat sterlzaton fee cbarg~d to users of the clnc be set at $10 per anmal and that the fee be waved for those owners on publc assstance programs (pendng avalablty of funds). Neghborhood surveys reveal that th~ lower the: fee, the greater the use of the. moble spay/neuter clnc. All commttees workng on ths program, beleve.that there should be ' some charge for the servces rendered.': There was also strong belef that the fee should be waved entrely f an owner could. show that s/he was on some type of publc assstance program and could not afford the $10 charge. Fee wavers would only be ntated f there were suffcent funds-and grants avalable. f number 4 s not approved, t wll be necessary to ncrease fees charged to at least S20 and lkely reduce the number of anmals sterlzed. 7. That a rabes vaccnaton be n"cluded as part of the medcal servces rendered to dogs/cats.sterlzed at the clnc and that the cost for the frst-tme county dog/cat lcense tag be waved. Whle the emphass s on sterlzaton,. there s a substantal secondary need to assure that.~ anmals are vaccnated aganst rab.es and tagged/dentfed. Wth rabes at ts hghest. level n 30 years, Palm Beach County has a publc health responsblty for assurng that, these anmals (who rarely, f ever, see a ~eternaran) are properly vaccnated. Smlarly, lost anmals whch are tagged can easly be dentfed and need not be mpounded at the county anmal shelter -- thus reducng :operatonal costs. Every attempt wll be made to rase: suffcent funds to assure that these anmals are also mplanted wth one of the new electr.onc anmal dentfcaton devces. These devces \\ll provde permanent dentfcaton for fo st anmals. :R 95 627 D
