fl Animal Care and Control Update
Director Heineman introduced Carrie Cihak of King
County Executive Dow Constantine's office and
recognized the work done by Employee
Relations/Compensation Manager John Fletcher.
Director Heineman gave a brief history of animal
control services with King County. Director Heineman
spoke regarding King County's intent to increase fees
to participating cities for animal control services
related to the number of services received by each
city. She also spoke regarding the lack of other
animal control providers with sufficient capacity to
handle the City-of Auburn needs. Director Heineman
displayed a chart depicting estimated costs to King
County for animal control services over the next 2'/
years. Most cities currently served by King County
Animal Control have indicated that they will stay with
King County for the next 2'/z years. Many of those
cities also indicated an interest in beginning dialogue
on establishing a sub-regional model. King County
has offered to be a part of those discussions: The
Page 4
Citv of Auburn Council Meeting Minutes Mav 3. 2010
King County contract will terminate on June 30, 2010.
Director Heineman reviewed the estimated costs
which include enhanced services for a full time animal
control officer. As the area currently covered by the
officer will increase from approximately 30 square
miles to approximately 300 square miles, another 20
hours for a part time animal control officer has been
included in an effort to retain the level of service now
received. Staff believes that costs can be reduced
significantly by improving the number ofi pefi owners
licensing their pets which at present time is
approximately only 18%. Director Heineman
reviewed the benefits of pet licensing to pet owners
' and also to participating cities,
' Carrie Cihak, Director of Strategic Initiatives, Office of
King County Executive Constantine, reported that
Executive Constantine began reviewing animal
' controf issues as soon as he came into office due to
deadlines enforced by the County Council. Executive
Constantine has. also developed his agenda for
reform of King County government. His reform
agenda addre5ses four principals including customer
service, performance, partnerships, and financial
sustainability. What they are hoping to achieve by
, bringing some stability to animal control services with
regard ,to financial sustainability is reviewing the
marketing side of pet licensing. The City of Auburn's
pet licensing rate is approximately 18% as compared
to the unincorporated area of King County which is
approximately 25-30%. There is significant potential
to increase the current licensing rates within the City
of Auburn. Any" licensing revenue collected within
Aubum's jurisdiction would be attributed back to the
City to help cover some of #he costs for animal control
services. The other great beneft of animal licensing
is that it reduces the costs by helping .to return
animals directly from the field to the pet owner
thereby reducing impound fees. In addition; there is
great opportunity, to increase the volunteer base as
well as bringing in donations. There are currently
approximately 200 volunteers at the shelter who
provide, among other needs, foster care. The animal
Page 5
Citv of Auburn Council Meetina Minutes Mav 3. 2010
control program has recently been registered with
Washington State as a non-profit program.
, Ms. Cihak reported that King County has begun exploring granf possibilities. It is hoped that
stabilizing the model over next 2'/z years will provide
opportunities to bring a private sheltering partner into
south King County to help reduce public costs of the
system. At this time, there are private sheltering
partners in north and east King County, but nofhing in
south King County. There is also great opportunity to
work with the City of Auburn and Auburn citizens with
regard #o responsible pet ownership and regional
' spay and neuter campaigns to reduce pet
homelessness.
In response to questions by Councilmembers Peloza,
- and Haugen, Ms. Cihak stated that the number of
licenses sold are compared to the City's population to
determine the percentage of licenses sold. The King
County shelter takes in approximately 10,000 animals
per year with a majority from south King County; It is _
easily twice as big as other King County shelters and
takes a substantial amount of property to sustain a
variety of animals.
