DATE: February 21, 2008 FROM: Laurie Craghead Legal 388-6623 TITLE OF AGENDA ITEM: Consideration and signature of Documents 2008-106 and 2008-107, Amendments to Contracts with Humane Society of Central Oregon and Humane Society of Redmond, respectively, for animal shelter services. PUBLIC HEARING ON THIS DATE? No. BACKGROUND AND POLICY IMPLICATIONS: Deschutes County contracts with the Humane Society of Central Oregon ("HSCO") and the Humane Society of Redmond ("HSR") to provide animal shelter services for impounded animals and for strays brought in by the public. In 2007, an issue arose as to the payment to each of the Humane Society shelters for impounded animals other than domestic dogs and cats. During the discussions with the shelters regarding this issue, the parties discussed other contract clarifications to be included in the contract amendment. At the public meeting for the Board's consideration of the amendments, Legal Counsel will discuss the details of the amendments. The amendments are attached with the additions underscored and deletions shown with strikethroughs to aid the Board in seeing the exact changes being made. Such demarcations will be removed upon Board final approval of the documents. FISCAL IMPLICATIONS: There will be an increase in payments to the shelters because the current contract only provides for payment for 5 days of impoundment of other types of animals. This contract will provide for a fee to be paid over a period of 21 -days. RECOMMENDATION & ACTION REQUESTED: Approve and sign final amendment.
