Body
Item Summary:
Fulton County provides a mechanism for all of the municipalities within the county to receive animal control services through a centralized contract with a single provider. The current IGA expires on June 30, 2013.  The terms of the IGA allow for additional renewal periods by mutual agreement of both governing bodies.  The proposed renewal will provide services for an additional one year term (July 1, 2013 through June 30, 2014).
 
The city will remit semi-annual payments to Fulton County in the amount of $50,517.88.  Costs for this program are calculated on an activity basis, meaning those jurisdictions actually receiving the benefit of the provider pay their respective share of the total cost.
Committee or Staff Recommendation:
On June 11, 2013 the Administration, Finance, Recreation and Parks Committee recommended placing this Item on the June 24, 2013 Mayor and Council Agenda.
 
Financial Impact:
$70,500 is currently included in the FY 2014 Approved Operating Budget for Animal Control Services.  Upon approval of BA 10015850-07-01-13, $101,035.75 will be approved for Animal Control Services in Org 10032102 and Object 521203 and $255,634.17 will be the available balance in Operating Contingency.
