Background: Analysis: Financial Impact: Alternatives: Recommendation: Funds are Available in the Following Accounts: REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY: Public Safety Committee Meeting 2/11/2020 1:10 PM Fix Georgia Pets Grant Award Department:Augusta Animal Services Presenter:Crystal Eskola Caption:Accept the partnership with Fix Georgia Pets in 2020. Augusta Animal Services was chosen by Fix Georgia Pets to receive an award in the amount of $15,000 to use for spay/neuter operations in 2019 and offer free spay/neuter for Return to Owner animals that have reproduced or may be bred in the future, ultimately impacting our future intake numbers. Background:Augusta Animal Services received a call from the Interim Director of Fix Georgia Pets offering funds to assist with spaying and neutering animals at the shelter. In an effort to reduce the number of unwanted litters in the future, we were given the opportunity to use funds to spay/neuter impounded animals, likely to be bred/have been bred. If the owner of the impounded animal accepts the sterilization of their pet the financial cost associated with the impound can be negotiated. The fees can be reduced/waived for the return of the animal to the owner. Analysis:This is a fantastic opportunity and allows AAS to offer sterilization for impounded animals that we have not been able to do before. Fix Georgia Pets disburses the funds directly to the veterinary clinics we currently use. Financial Impact:Fix Georgia Pets disburses the funds directly to the veterinary clinics we currently use. Alternatives:Do not accept the offer and the funds would be sent to another area of Georgia. Recommendation:Accept the partnership with Fix Georgia Pets again this year. No matching is required.
