HOV Agreement Commission Memorandum REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and City Commission FROM: Rich McLane, Deputy Chief of Police SUBJECT: Heart of the Valley Shelter and Services Agreement MEETING DATE: June 15, 2015 AGENDA ITEM TYPE: Consent RECOMMENDATION: Authorize the City Manager to sign a four (4) year agreement with the Heart of the Valley animal shelter for the purpose of impounding and caring for animals found in violation of City of Bozeman ordinances. BACKGROUND: For several years, the City of Bozeman has worked in partnership with the Heart of the Valley animal shelter, a non-profit organization, regarding the safe and secure location for the temporary shelter and care of dogs and cats seized by the City of Bozeman as well as those found at large by members of the community. Currently, the City pays the Heart of the Valley $10,450 per month for the shelter and care of at large dogs and cats found within the city limits. For the past three months, members of City and Heart of the Valley staff have met to discuss any issues, as well as reviewed financial documents and reports of animal intakes and releases for the past year. The Heart of the Valley and the City have tentatively agreed to a four (4) year agreement, at a rate of $10,850 per month for FY2016, FY2017, FY2018 and FY2019. Although City staff takes note of the increased fiscal impact, the services provided by the Heart of the Valley are extremely beneficial and necessary for the City and the citizens of Bozeman. This increased cost is more than reasonable, considering the 4 year agreement and identified costs. It is our recommendation that this agreement be approved and adopted for a four (4) year term, from July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2019. UNRESOLVED ISSUES: None FISCAL EFFECTS: An increase in contracted services over the term of the four (4) year agreement is $19,200 or $4,800 per year. ALTERNATIVES: As suggested by the City Commission.
