" control officers in response to calls, and the handling of calls in the field by animal control
officers, including the collection and delivery of animals to the Kent Shelter (or such other
shelters as the County may utilize in accordance with this Agreement).
1. Call Center
a. The County will operate an animal control call center Monday through
Friday every week (excluding holidays and County-designated furlough days, if applicable) for. a m;n;mum of eight hours per day (normal business
hours). The County may adjust the days of the week the call center operates
based on the final choice of Control District service days. b. The animal control call center will provide callers with guidance, education,
options and alternative resources as possible/appropriate.
c. When the call center is not in operation, callers will hear a recorded message
referring them to 911 in case of emergency, or if the event is not an
emergency, to either leave a message or call back during regular business
hours. - 2. Animal Control Officers
a. The County will divide the area receiving Control Services into Control
Districts. Each of the geographic Control Districts, as shown on Exhibit B
will be staffed with one Animal Control Officer (ACO) five consecutive days-
-per-week (such days to be selected by the County) for not less than eight ~
hours per-day ("Regulaz ACO Service Hours"), subject to the limitations
provided in this Section. Except as tlle County may in its sole discretion
determine is necessary to protect officer safety, Animal Control Officers shall
be available for responding to calls within their assigned Control District and
will not be generally available to respond to calls in other Control Districts.
Exhibit B-1 shows the map of Control Districts for the period from July 1
through December 31, 2010; Exhibit B-2 shows the map of Control Districts
for the period after 2010. The daily eight-hour service period shall be
determined by tlie County and shall start not earlier than 7 a.m. and end not -
later than 7 p.m. Count3rwide, the County will have a total of not less than
6 Animal Control Officers (Full-Time Equivalent employees) on staff to
maximize the ability of the County to staff each Control District

high workload areas on a day-to-day basis. While the Parties recognize that
Document Dated 5-31-10 17
the County may at times notbe able to staff all Control Districts as proposed
given unscheduled sick leave or vacancies, the County will make its best
efforts to establish regular hourly schedules and vacations for Animal
:
Control Officers in order to muumize any such gaps in coyerage. In the
event of extended absenees among the 6..Animal Control Officers, the County.
,
will re-allocate.rema;ni„g Animai Control Officers as practicable in order to
balance the hours of se=vice available in each Control District.

to other resources, or by dispatching of an Animal Control Officer as
necessary or available, all: as determined necessary and appropriate in the
sole discretion of the County. Particulazly in the busier seasons of the yeaz
(spring through fall), lower priority calls may only receive a telephone
response from the Call Center. Lower Priority calls are non-ernergent
requests for service, including but not limited fo:
1. Non-emergent high priority events,
2. Patrol request -(Animal Control Officer requested to patrol a
. specific area due to possible code violations),

Exhibit C
Calculation of Estimated Payments ,
The Estimated Payment is the amount; before reconciliation, owed by the City to the
County (or owed by tYie Countyto the City if the amount calculated is less than $0) for the -
provision of six months of Animal Services, based on the formulas below.
In summary and subject to the more detailed descriptions herein:
• Control Services costs aze to be equally shazed among the 4 geographic Control
Districts. Each Contracting Party located within a Control District is to be allocated .
a shaze of Control District costs based 50% on the Party's relative share of total Calls
for Service within the Control District and 50% on its relative shaze of total
population within the Control District.
• Shelter Services costs are to be allocated among all Contracting Parties based 50%
on their relative population and 50% on the total shelter intake of animals :
attributable to each Contracting Party, except that cities contracting for shelter
. services with PAWS will pay only a population-based charge and that charge will
be one-half the regular shelter services cost population component payable by other
. ,
cities; and
• Licensing Services costs are to be allocated between all Contracting Parties, based
50% on their relative populaHon and 50% on the number of licenses issued to
, residents of each Contracting Party.
m Licensing revenue is to be attributed based on the residency of the individual ,
purchasing the license.
• Each Estimated Payment covers the cost of six months of Animal Services.
• Three credits aze applicable to various cities to reduce the amount of their
Estirnated Payments: a Transition Funding Credit (for cities with high per-capita costs); a Resident Usage Credit (for cities with low usage as compared to
population); and an Impact Mitigation Credit (for cities whose projected costs were
most impacted by decisions of eertain cities not to participate in the regional
Agreement). Application of tllese Credits is limited such that the Esfimated
Payxnent cannot fall below zero (before or after the annual reconciliation
calculation) with respect to .the Transition Funding Credit, or below $2,750 or $2,850
(both amounts are annualized):with respect to the Resident Usage Credit and
Document Dated 5-31-10 26
Impact Mitigation Credit (depending on whether Bothell received Animal Services
in the Service Yeaz being reconciled).
• Estimated Payments aze reconciled to reflect actual revenues and actual usage as .
well as changes in popuk4yon. The reconciliadon calculation occurs in June of the ~
following calendar year. The reconailiation calculation and paymentprocess is
described in Exhibit D. The receipt of Transition Funding Credits, Resident Usage
Credits, or :Impact Mitigation Credits can never result in the amounf of the
Estimated Payments as reconciled falling below the limits described in the
paragraph above ($0, $2,750 or $2,875 (annualized), depending on the credit and
whether Bothell received service under an Agreement during the Service Yeaz).
Estimated Payment Formula:
EP=[EC+ES+EL-ER-T U-M]=2
Where:
"EP" is the Estimated Payment. For Cities receiving a Transition Credit, Resident Usage
Credit or Impact Mitigation Credit, the value of EP may not be less than the amounts
prescribed in Exhibit C-4. °
"EC" is the City's share of the Budgeted Net Allocable Control Services Cost for the
Service Year. See formula below, for deriving "EC.
"ES" is the City's share of the Budged Net Allocable Shelter Services Cost for the Service
Yeaz. See forrrcula below for deriving "ES."
"EL" is the City's share of the Budgeted Net Allocable Licensing Services Cost for the
Service Year. See formula below for deriving "EL."
"ER" is Estimated Licensing Revenue, attributable to the City. For purposes of determining
the Estimated Payment in Years 2010 and 2011, ER is derived from the number of each
type of active license issued to City residents in yeazs 2009 (the "Calculation Period")
shown on Exhibit G2. For Service Year 2010, that number is multiplied by the cost of
those licenses in 20091, resulting in the estimated values for Service Year 2010 shown on
1 20091icensing types and costs used for purposes of calculating Estimated Licensing Revenue per
jurisdiction in Exhibit Gl include: Cat and Dog, Altered (spayed or neutered)- $30;. Cat and Dog Unaltered-
-$90; Cat and Dog, Juvenile (less than 6 months in age) -$5; Dog, Senior (over 65)owner -$20; Cat, Senior
Document Dated 5-31-10 27
Exhibit C-1, and then adding the amount of revenue estimated to be derived as a result of
the Transitional Licensing Support Services in 2010 to those five Cities identified in '
Exhibit C-5 (the estimated Transitional Licensing Support Services revenue is also shown
on Exhibit Gl). License Revenue that cannot be attributed to a specific Party (e.g.,
.:License Revenue associated with incomplete address information), which generally
~represents a very small fraction of overall revenue, is allocated amongst the Parties based
on their respective percentages of ER as compared to Total Licensing Revenue.
"T" is the Transition Funding Credit, if any, allocable to the City for each Service Year,
calculated per Exhibit C-4; provided however, a City identified in Exhibit C-4 is only eligible
for a Transition Credit if that City agreed to enter into tfiis Agreement for a term through
Deeember 31, 2012,• provided furthez, that the amount of "T", if any, for Service Yeaz 2010
shall be: applied pro rata to the calculation of the Final Estunated 2010 Payment even if,
despite the agreement of the City, the Agreement only goes into effect for 6 months or 60
days per Section 15.
"U" is the Resident Usage Credit, if any, allocable to the City for each Service Yeaz,
calculated, per Ezhibit C-4; provided hozvever, a City identified in Exhibit C-4 is only
eligible for a Resident Usage Credit if that City agreed to enter into this Agreement for a
term through December 31, 2012; provided further, that the amount of "U", if any, for
Service Year 2010 shall be applied pro rata to the calculation of the Final Estimated 2010
Payment even if, despite the agreement of the City, the Agreement only goes into effect for
6 months or 60 days per Section 15.
"M" is the Impact Mitigation Credit, if any, allocable to the City for each Service Year,
calculated per Exhibit C-4; provided however, a City identified in Exhibit C-4 is only eligible
for an Impact Mitigation Credit if that City agreed to enter into this Agreement for a term
through December 31, 2012; provided further, that the amount of "M;" if any, for Service
Year 2010 shall be applied pro rata to the calculation of the Final Estimated 2010 Payment
even if, despite the agreement of the City, the Agreement only goes into effect for 6
months or 60 days per Section 15. -
And where:
"Budgeted Net Allocable Costs" are the estimated costs for the Service Year for, the
provision of Animal Services which are allocated among the Contracting Parties for the
owner- $12; Cat and Dog, Renewal; Service and Temporary, Senior owner renewal-- $0. License types and
costs are subject to change over time.
Document Dated 5-31-10 28
purposes of determining the Estimated Payment. The Budgeted Net Allocable Costs are
calculated as the Budgeted Total Allocable Costs (subject to the Annual Budget Inflator
Cap) tess Budgeted Total Non-Licensing Revenue. The Budgeted Total Allocable Costs
exdude any amount expended by the County as Transition Funding Credits, Resident Use
Credits, or Impact Mitigation Cred#s.(described in Exlubit C4) or to provide Transitional -
Licensing Revenue Support Services (described in Section 7). The calculation of Budgeted
IVef Allocable Costs, Budgeted Total Allocable Costs:and Budgeted TotalNon-Licensing
Revenue for purposes of calculating the Estimated 2010 Payments is set forth in Exhibif C-
3. '
"Total Licensing Revenue" means all revenue received by the County's Animal Services '
System attributable to the sale of pet licenses excluding late fees. With respect to each Contracting Party, the amount Licensing Revenue is the revenue generated by the sale of „
pet licenses to residents of the jurisdiction. (With respect to the County, the jurisdiction is
the unincorporated area of King County.) The value of Estimated Licensing Revenue for
eaeh Contracting Party for purposes of calculating the Estimated 2010 Payment includes
amounts estimated to be generated from Transitional Licensing Revenue Support Services,
and is shown on Exhibit G1.
"Tota1 Non-Licensing Revenue" means all revenue from fine, forfeitures, and all other
. fees and charges received by the County's Animal Services system, excluding Tota1
Licensing Revenue.
"Transitional Licensing Support Servicesry means activities to be undertaken in specific
cities in 2010 to enhance licensing revenues, per Section 7 of the Agreement.
:'Annual Budget Inflator Cap" means the maximum amount by which the Budgeted Total
Allocable Costs may be increased from one Service Year to the next Service Year, and year
to yeaz, which is calculated as the rate of inflation (based on the annual change in the
September CPI-U for the Seattle-Tacoma-Bremerton azea oyer the rate the preceding year)
plus the rate of population growth for the preceding yeaz for the Counry (including only
the unincorporated area) plus aI1 Contracting Cities, as identified by comparing the two
most recently published July OFM city and county population reports. The cost allocations
to individual services (e.g. Control Services, Shelter Services or Licensing Services) or
specific items within those services may be increased or decreased from year to year in so
long as the Budgeted Total Anriual Allocable Costs do nofi exceed the Annual Budget
Inflator Cap. Similarly, the Estimated Payment for any Party will increase or decrease
from Service Year to Service Year based on that Party's population and usage of Animal
Services from year to year
Dceument Dated 5-31-10 29
\
"Service Year" is the calendar yeaz in which Animal Services are/were provided. (In 2010;
the Service Year is the period from July 1, 2010 December 31, 2010; the Estimated
- i'ayment calculation shown in Exhibit C is based on annualized costs).
"::C-alculation Period" is the time period from which data is used to calculate the, Estimated
Payment. The Calculation. Period differs by formula component and Service Yeaz. In
Service Yeazs 2010 and 2011, the Calculation Period for Calls for Service ("CFS"), Animals
, ("A"), or Licenses Issued ("I") (all as further defined below) is based on multiple year
averages as detailed in Exhibit C76. For Service Year 2012'and beyond (if the Agreemenf
is eztended into an additional2-year term), the Calculation Period is the yeaz that is fwo
calendar.yeazs prior to the Service Yeaz (thus, for Service Yeaz 2012, the Calculation Period
is 2010). Exhibit C-6 summarizes in table form the Calculation Periods for the usage and
population factors for Service Years 2010, 2011 and 2012.
"Population" with respect to any Contracting Party for any Service Year means the
population number derived from the State Office of Financial Management (OFM) most
recent annually published report of: populadon to be used for purposes of allocation of
state shared revenues in the subsequent calendar year (typically published by OFM each
July,. reflecting final population estimates as of April of the same calendar year). The OFM
reported population will be adjusted for annexations of 2,500 or more residents. For
example, when the final Estimated Payment calculation for 2012 is provided on December
15, 2011, the population numbeis used will be from the OFM report issued in July 2011
and will be adjusted for all annexations of 2,500 or more residents that occurred (or will
occur) between Apri11 and December 31, 2011. By way of further example, the
reconciliation of the 2012 payment (calculated in June 2013) will incorporate adjusted
population numbers based on 'the OFM population report issued in July 2012 adjusted for
all annexations of 2,500 or more residents that occurred between April l, 2012 and
, December 31, 2012. Where annexations occur, the City and County population values will
be adjusted pro rata to reflect the portion of the year in which the annexed area was in the
City and the portion of the yeaz in which the area was unincorporated. The population of
an annexed area will be as deterniined by the Boundary Review Board, in consultation
with the annexing city. The population of the unincorporated area within any District will
be determined by the King Countydemographer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
population for all potential Contracring Parties for purposes of determining the final
Estimated 2010 Payment willbe based on the July 2009 OFM report, adjusted for
annexations occurring through the end of December 2010, as known as .of April, 2010, and
shown on Exhibit G2, and the reconciliation of the Estimated 2010 Payments (calculated
in June 2011) will incorporate changes to population as reflected in the 2010 U.S. Census
(results expected to be published Apri12011).

EC is calculated as followsr
EC ={[(C x.25) x.5] x CFS} +{[(C X, 25) x.5] x D-Pop}
- Where:
"C" is the Budgeted Net Allocable Control Services Cost for the Service Year, which
equals the County's Budgeted Total Allocable Costs for Confiol Services in the Service .
Yeaz; less the Budgeted Total Non-Licensing Revenue attributable to Control Services in
. the Service Year (for example, fines issued in the field). Budgeted Net Allocable Control

Contract will not be counted as a Call for Service. For purposes of determining the
Estimated Payment in 2010 and 2011, the Calculation Period for CFS is the 3-year period
from 2007-2009, resulting in an annual average number of Calls for Service for the City
and each Contracting Party as shown on Exhibit G 2. "D-Pop" is the Population of the City, expressed as a percentage of the Population of all
jurisdictions within the applicable Control Districf. -

associated with shelter usage ('`A" as defined below) and instead the Estimated Payment
will include a reduced population-based charge reflecting the regional shelter benefifs
nonetheless received by such City, calcul.ated as follows (the components of this
calculation aze defined as described below).
ES='($x.5xPop)-2
If tlie City does not qualify for the reduced population-based shelter charge, ES is

. Exhibit C4
_
Transition Funding Credit ("T"), Resident Usage Credit ("U") and
Impact Mitigation Credit ("M") Calculation and Allocation
,
,
Transition Funding Credit .
The Transition Funding Credit has been calculated to offset costs to certain cities on a
, deelining basis over four yeazs. Cities qualifying for this credit, as shown below, are.those that tznder the basic Animal Services cost allocation formula (allocating costs generally
based half on population and half on usage), would pay the highest per capita costs in
2010.
To determine the initial level of the Transition Funding Credit, $250,000 has been alloeated ,
fo Cities with preliminary estimated 2010 cost allocations (before considering offsetting
Licensing Revenue) exeeeding $6 per capita; an additional $400,000 was allocated to the -
Cities with preliminary estimated 2010 cost allocations (before considering offsetting
_ Licensing Reyenue) exceeding $8 per capita. (The per cagita cost allocations used to
gualify for tlvs credit may be derived from Exhibit G1 in column caption "Estunated Total Cost Allocation" divided by the population for the jurisdiction as shown in Exhibit
C 2.)
The Transition Funding Credit declines over time: 50% of the annual amount (since the
service year is six months, rather than a full year) is allocable to each qualifying City in
calculating the Estimated 2010 Payment;100% of the amount is allocable again in
calculating the 2011 Estimated Payment; 66% of the amount is allocable in 2012. If the
Agreement is extended for an additional two years; 33% of the arnount is available in 2013;
no Transition Funding Credit is allocable in 2014.
The credit is only available to a qualifying City if that City has agreed to a 2.5 Yeaz
. Agreement. Application of. the credit can never result in the Estimated Payment Amount being less than zero ($0) (i.e., cannot result in the County owing the City an Estimated
Payment).
The allocation of the TransitionFunding Credit is shown in Table 1 below.

Notes:
1. , The transitional funding credit is the same regardless of which cities sign an Agreement.
Resident. Usage Credit
The Resident Usage Credit has been calculated to offset the costs of certain cities agreeing
to a 2.5 year Agreement that have a low use of King County animal services relative to
their population. The amount of the credit is different depending on whether the City of
Bothell is receiving service during a given Service Year. The credit has been determined
by comparing the esfiimated cost Cities would pay on an annualized basis in 2010 if the
regional payment model was based solely on usage (including estimated costs payable to
PAWS by cities that will be contracting for shelter services with PAWS) to the cost payable
under the adopted model (which incorporates both usage and populadon, including
estimated costs payable to PAWS by Northern Cities t11af will be contracting for shelter
services with PAWS). The credit is set so that no City that has a Preliminary Estimated
2010 Cost Allocation after considering 2009 Licensing Revenue (as shown in Exhibit Gi in -
the column captioned "Estimated Net Cost Allocation") of over $5,000 (an annualized cost)
pays more than 120% above what it would pay under a usage-based model that assumes
all cities that expressed interest in participating as of May. 5, 2010 sign an Agreement;
provided that, a City must sign a 25 year Agreement to qualify for the credit; and provided
further, that credits are fixed in amount as shown in Table 2 below and will not change
regardless of which Cities sign the.Agreement. As annualized, the credit is carried forwazd
each year without change through 2012. Application of the credit can never result in the
Final Estimated Payments for any Service Year being less than $2,750 for receipt of Animal
' Services in that year if Bothell is served under an Agreement in such Service Year and not
Document Dated 5-31-10 47
less than $2,875 for receipt of Animal Services in that yeaz ifBothell is not served (for
Northern Cities with PAWS contracts in effect as of July 1, 2010, calculations are made
indusive of a City's actual payments for such yeaz to PAWS for shelter services). These
minimum values are annualized (thus, for example, in2010, if Bothellis served, the Einal :
Estimated Payments cannot be less than $2750 = 2=$1,375). -

Iml2act Mitigation Credit
The purpose of this credit is to limit the impact to Contracting Cities signing for a 2.5 year
Agreement as, a result of three cities (Burien, Algona and Pacific) deciding as of May 5, .
2010, that they would not partieipate in the model, as compared to the cosfs presented to
all cities in April, 2010, and assuming all other Cities shown in Exhibit C-1 sign the
Agreement. The amount of the credit is sized to ensure that a City's Preliminary
Estimated Payment after applying the;Residential Use Credifi and the Transition Funding
Credit is not greater than 10% more than the Preliminary Estimated 2010 Cost from the
Apri12010 model and not greater than 15% more than such Cost if Bothell does not
-contract for service past December 2010; provided that the credit amounts aze fixed as
shown in Table 3 below and will not change regardless of which Cities sign the
Agreement; provided further that only Cities signing a 2.5'year agreement qualify for the
Document Dated 5-31-10 48
credit; and provided further_ that application of the credit can never result in the Estimafed
Paymenf Amount, of less than $2,750 for receipt of Animal Services in that Service Yeaz if
Bothell is served under an Agreement in such Service Year and not less than $2,875 for
receigt of Arumal Seivices in that: year if Bothell is not served (for Northern Cities with

Exhibit D
Reconciliation
The purpose of the reconczliation calculation is to adjust payments made each Service Year
by Contxra"retirig Parties to reflecE aetual use, population, licensing rates and licensiiig; and
non-licensing revenue data as.compared to the Estimated Payments made. To accomplish
'this, an Adjusted Payment "AP° calculation is made,each June for each Contracting City, ~
using the same formulas from Exhibit C but subsfiifiuting actual values as desarbed below
(with one additional cornponenf calculation related to Enhanced Service Contracts).
, For Service Year 2010, AP is caleulated based on actual vaiues from the six month period
qf the Agreement from July-December 2010, compared against the 2010 Final Estimated
Payment for the same six month period, thus:
EP-AP=R
For Service Years 2011 and beyond, AP is an annualized number, and is compared to the
total Estinlated Payments owed by the Party for the Service Year ("EP x 2") to determine a
Reconciliation Adjustment Amount ("R"), thus:
(EP x 2) - AP = R
The value of "R" can be positive or negative; provided that in no event shall a City receiving
a Transition Funding Credit for t11e Service Yeaz pay less than $0 for receipt of Animal
Services in that year, and in no event shall a City receiving a Resident Usage Credit or
~ Impacf 1Vlitigation Credit for the Service Year pay less than $2,750 (annualized) for receipt
of Animal Services in that yeaz if BotheIl is served, nor less than $2,875 (annualized) for
receipt of Animal Services in that year if Bothell is not served in such year (for Northern
Cities with PAWS contracts in effect as of July 1, 2010, calculations are made inclusive of a
City`s actual payments for such year to PAWS for shelter services).
As described in Exhibit C, the amount of the Estimated Payment(s) ("EP") for each Service
Year are derived from applying Budgeted Net Allocable Costs and historical
(Calculation Period) use, pogulation and licensing dafa to the formulas set forth in
Exhibit C. These formulas are resfafed below, substituting actual value components
(denoted by an "A" in subscript) fo"r purposes of calculating "AP." Terms not otherwise
defined here have the meanings set forth elsewhere in Exhibit C or the body of the
Agreement.

(for Northern Cities with PAWS contracts in effect as of July 1, 2010, calculations are made
- inclusive of a City's actual payments for such year to PAWS for shelter services).
"M" is the Impact Mitigation Credit, if any, for the Service Yeaz, provided that the Impact
Mitigation Credit will be limited if necessary so that the value of AP is not less than $2,750

(for Northern Cities with PAWS contracts in effect as of July.1, 2010, caleulations are made
. inclusive of a City's actual payments.for such year.to PAWS for shelter services).
"AR" is Actual Licensing Revenue attributable to the City, based on actual Licensing
Revenues received from residents of the City in the Service Year. (License Revenue that
cannot be attributed to a specific Party (e.g., License Revenue associated with incomplete

address information), will be allocated amongst the Parties based on their respective
percentages of total AR).
uCw" is Adjusted Budgeted Net Allocable Control Services Cost for the Service Yeaz,
. which equa" County's Budgeted Total Allocable. Costs for Control Services in the
Service Year, less the Actual Total Non-Licensing Revenue attributable to Control Services
in #he Service Year. "CFSn" is the aclual total annual riumber of Calls for the Service Year for animal control
services originating within the City e.xpressed as a percentage of the CFSn for aIl Contract •

Service, if any, as further described in Exhibit D-L
"Sw" is the Adjusted Budgeted Net Allocable Shelter Services Cost for the Service Year,
which equals the County's Budgeted Total Allocable Costs for Shelter Services less Actual
Total Non-Licensing Revenue attnbutable to Shelter operations (i.e., adoption fees,

paid to the City by the County not later than August 15; provided that R shall be limited
such that in no event shall the City pay less than zero for Animal Services #or the Service
Year if the City received a Transition Credit, and not less than $2750 (annualized) in that
year if Bothell is served and not less than $2,875 (annualized) for receipt of Animal
Services in that year if Bothell is not served (for Northern Cities with PAWS contracts in
effect as of July 1, 2010, calculations are made inclusive of a City's actual payments for such yeaz to PAWS for shelter services).
If the resulting calculation shows that the City's AP is more than the EP for the Service

Exhibit D-1
Calculation of Support Cost Adjustment Factor
Associated with Enhanced Control Service ("O")
The Support Cost Adjustment Factor is intended re=allocate certain indirect costs
associated with Animal ControT Offieers (AGOs) when an Enhanced Control Service
Contract is in place for any Contracting Party and the Enhanced Service is being provided
during Regulaz ACO Service Hours as defined in Exhibit A, Part I, Section 2.a.
If a Contracting Party purchases Enhanced Control Service during any part of a Service
Yeaz, and that Enhanced Control Service is provided during Regular ACO Service Hours,
then a Support Cost Adjustrnent Factor ("O") will be calculated for all Contracting Parti.es
tn the same Control I}isirict. This calculation will be applied as part of the reconciliation -
process.
If no Contracting Party within the Control District purchased Enhanced Control Service
during any part of a Service Year, or if Enhanced Control Service was purchased but was
not provided during Regular AC0 Service Hours, then there is no Support Cost
Adjustment Factor (that is, the value of "O" is zero).
If "O" is not zero, its value will,be calculated as follows:
First; identify the IVon-Direct Service Support Costs for Control Services in a single Control
District (including the management, animal cruelty sergeant, call center and IT costs and
- general overhead costs; excluding salary, benefits, vehicle and equipment costs).
Second, divide this Non-Direct Service Support Cost number by 2(since half these costs
are funded through the population-based factor in calculation of "CA"), to derive the
Allocable Support Costs.
Third, divide the Allocable Support Gosts by 6(the numbei of regular ACOs funded in the
base service model) plus the number of Enhanced Animal Control Service Officers
providing service in the Control District. For example, if a City (or Cities) in the Control
District has purchased .5 FTE equivalent of Enhanced Service, the divisor is 6.5. The
resulting dollar amount is then multiplied by the FTE equivalent for fihe Enhanced Service
officer (in this example, :5) to derive the Support Cost Adjustment Factor.
The Support Cost Adjustment Factor is then applied as follows to determine the value of "O".
for each Contracting Party in the Control District:
Document Dated 5-31-10 - 59
,
1. : One Half the Support Cost.Adjustment Factor multipliedby the Contraciuig Party's
percentage of Calls for Service (CFSw) is applied as a reduction in costs for all Contracting Parties in the Control District.
- -2. One Half the Support Cost Adjustment Factor ;(shazed pro rata if Parties aze sharing
an Enhariced Control Service officer within the same Control District) is applied as an addition in costs for the Contracting Party purchasing Enhanced Service. '

Attachment A(Enhanced Service Options Matrix). Such services shall be provided for the
period of time and cost described on Attachment A and may not be for a term of less than
one year except as per subpazagraph 1 below. Costs identified, in Attachment A are for one
(1) year of service, in 2010 dollars, and include the cost of the employee (salary, benefits), ;

Annual costs are subjeet to adjustment each yeaz, limited by the Annual Budget Inflator
Cap: (as defined in the Agreement).
L Notwithstanding the foregoing, a City, requesting enhanced control services
, beginning in July 2010 can require that its Contract term end on December 31, 2010, in
the event the County implements (at the County's expense) an additional2 days per week
of Confrol Seryices countywide beginning in January2011 (resulting in 7-day per week/8
hour day minimum). If such additional service is not.funded by the County, the City's
Confract for enhanced Control Services will remain in effect for such langer period as the
City has requested (not less than one year in total).
B. Senrices of the Dedicated Officer shall be in addition to the Animal Services otherwise
' provided to the City by the County through the Agreement. Accordingly, the calls .
responded to by the Dedicated Officer shall not be incorporated in the .calculation of the
City's Calls for Service (as further described in Exhibit C and D to the Agreement).
However, if the City is requesting that the Enhanced Service occur during Regular ACO
Service Hours, the City will pay a Support Cost Adjustinent Factor as part of the
Document Dated 5-31-10 61
Reconciliation Adjustment Amount, calculated per Exhibit D-1 of the Agreement, in
addition to the costs described herein.
C. The scheduling of work by the Dedicated Officer shall be determined by mutual
agreement of the contract administrators identified in Seetion 16 of the Agreement, and the
mutual agreement of officials of other Cities named as contract administrators that have
committed to sharing in the expense of the Dedicated Officer; provided in the event the
parties are unable to agree, the Couniy shall have the right to finally determine the
` schedule of the Dedicated Officer in order to best meet the requests of multiple cities in
ligtit of work rules applicable to the Dedicated Officer.
D. Control Services to be.provided to the City pursuant to this Enhanced Services
Contract include Control Services of the type and nature as described under the
- Agreement with respect to Animal Control Officers serving in Control Districts, and
include but are not limited to, issuing .written warnings, citations and other enforcement
notices and orders on behalf of the Ciry, or such otlier services as the Parties may
reasoriably agree.
E. The County shall provide the City with a general quarterly calendar of scheduled
service in the City, and a monthly report of the types of services offered and performed.
F. An FT'E will be scheduled to serve 40 hour weeks, however, with loss of service hours
potentially attributable to vacation, sick leave, training and furlough days, a minimum of
1600 hours per yeaz will be provided. Similarly, a half : time FTE will provide a minirnum
of 800 hours per yeaz. The County shall submit to the Cify an invoice and billing voucher
at the end of each calendaz quarter; excepting that during the 4thquarter of each yeaz
during the term of this Contract, an invoice shall be submitted to the City no later than
December 15t'. All invoiced amounts shall be payable by the City within 30 days of the invoice date.
G. The City or County may terminate this Enhanced Services Contract with or, without
cause upon providing not less than 3 months written notice to the other Party; provided
that, if the City is sharing the Enhanced Control Services with other Contracting Cities,
this Contract may only be terminated by the City if: (1) all such other Contracting Cities
similarly agree to terminate service on such date, or (2) if prior to such termination date
another Contracting City or Cities enters into a contract with the County to purchase the
Enhanced Control Service that the City wishes to term:inafe;provided further: except as
provided in Paragraph: A:1, a Confract may not be terminated if the term of service
resulting is less than one year. .

70 STATEMENT OF FACTS: 71 1. King County animal care and control has provided serdices to the
72 unincorporated azeas of King County and by contract to the ma}ority of
~73 cities in the courity in exchange for retention of their pet licensing revenue ' 74 since the mid-1980s.
75 2. The county general fund contribution to the provision of animal .
76 services has increased over the years; culminating in a general fund
- 77 contribution of nearly $3 million in recent years.
78 3. Motion 13092, adopted by the metropolitan King County council on
79 November 9, 2009, directed the, county executive to end the provision of
so animal shelter services by King County for contract cities and for
81 unincorporated King County as soon as possible but no later than January
82 31, 2010, and to enter into new full cost recovery contracts with cities for
83 animal control and licensing services by June 30, 2010.
84 4. The 2014 Budget Ordinance, Ordinance 16717, Section 30; provided 85 funding for animal care and control such that sheltering services would be . 86 provided only through January 31, 2010: ~
87 5. With the adoption of Ordinance 16750, extending FTE authority for
88 animal sheltering services through June 30, 2010, the county recognized
4
Ordinance 16861
89 that there is currently not sufficient sheltering capacity in the region to
90 close the King County animal shelter. The extension of FTE authority 91 provided a common deadline for the county to work with cities on a new 92 regional model for animal services; inclusive of aniimal sheltering, animal
93 control, and pet licensing functions.
94 6. A regional model for animal services enables the county and the cities
95 to provide for better public health, safety, animal welfare and customer
96 service outcomes at a lower cost than jurisdictions are able to provide for
97 on their own. This is accomplished through properly aligned financial
98 incentives, partnerships to increase revenue, economies of scale, a
99 consistent regulatory approach across participating,jurisdictions and
100 collaborative initiatives to reduce the homeless animal population and
101 Ieverage private sector resources while providing for a level of animal care
102 respected by the community
103 7. Beginning in January of 2010, a joint cities-county:work group began
104 meeting on a weekly basis to develop a new regional animal services
105 model for King County and individual cities to consider. The work group 106 included representation from King County and the cities of SeaTac,
107 Tukwila, Kent, BelIevue, Redmond, Sammamish, Shoreline and Lake
108 Forest Park. :
109 8. On February 26, 2010, the executive transmitted to the council an
110 implementation plan for entering into new animal services contracts with
111 cities.
5
Ordinance 16861
112 9. Consistent with the implementation plan, the joint cities-county work
113 group for regional animal services developed an agreement in principle for
114 a new regianal animal services model that defines services;--expenditures, -
115 cost and revenue allocation methodologies and collaborative initiatives for
116 increasing revenues through fees, penalties, and other means for animat
117 shelter,_animal control and pet licensing services. The agreement in 118 principle and supporting materials were shared with all cities, the county
A19 council, and the public in early April, through presentations to city
120 managers and administrators, the suburban cities' association public issues
121 committee,, the regional policy committee, numerous city council meetings
122 and through individual meetings with county and city official"s and staff.
• 123 10. Consistent.with the implementation plan, the joint cities-county work
124 group for.regional animal services developed an interlocal agreement for
125 animal services based on the agreement in principle.
126 11. The proposed interlocal agreement provides for regional anirrzal services to be
127 funded in part by revenue earned through license sales and fees and fines. In
128 2010, this revenue is estimated to total about twc-thirds of expenditures.
129 12. King County and cities participating in the interlocal agreement have
130 , a mutual interest in increasing program revenue to support ariimal '
131 services, including through: (a) changes to pet license fees; (b) prograriis,
132 penalties and other incentives to increase pet license sales; (c) enforcement .
133 of city and county codes requiring the licensing of pets; (d) gifts, bequests 134 and donations that promote animal welfare; and (e) entrepreneurial
6 .
Ordinance 16861
135 ' programs for raising revenue„ such as sponsorships, advertising, naming
136 rights, concessions and fundraising events. 137 13. The proposed interlocal:agreement requires cities to enact an 6W' '
138 ordinance or resolution that includes license, fee, penalty, enforcement,
139 impound/redemption and shelteringprovisions that are substantially the
140 same as those of Title 11 of King Counry. Code.
141 14. King County residents and volunteers regularly donate funds to King County
142 to enhance the welfare of animals generally or through specific means such as
143 providing for animals' special medical needs or supporting spay/neuter services.
144 Expedient access to these funds for use in the manner in which they were donated
145 is critical to the welfare of animals in King County's care. .
