Item No. 3

AGENDA REPORT
DATE: May 12, 2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Ana V. Sauseda, Director of General Services/City Clerks X1 SUBJECT: FY26 Animal Care and Control Contract
RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council authorize the Interim City Manager to execute Amendment No. 1 to the agreement with the County of San Bernardino for the provision of animal care and control services in an amount not to exceed $575,089.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:

Since incorporation, animal care and control services have been provided, within the City of Yucaipa, through a contract with the Animal Care and Control (ACC) Division of the Public Health Department of the County of San Bernardino. These services include the provision of an Animal Control Officer to respond to calls for service seven days per week, and night mechanism for emergency service after normal hours and on holidays, vaccination clinics, dog licensing and renewals, impounding and shelter services for all animals caught at -large and providing for the return of all licensed dogs, whenever possible.

The current agreement for ACC services expires on June 30, 2025. The cost for services provided in the proposed agreement for FY26 will increase from $558,339 in FY 24/25 to the proposed $575,089 for FY26. In addition to the proposed increase, the City can expect to see a 3% annual adjustment per year moving forward.

The City pays for actual utilization of services and actual costs to provide those services. Since sufficient contingencies exist within the existing contract amount, the annual total cost for providing services is not expected to exceed the total contract amount. Historically, actual costs have remained significantly below the annual contract amount. Based on historical trends, staff is estimating usage at 60% or $340,000, which will be reflected in the FY26 budget. If additional usage occurs, up to the contract amount, the overage will be paid from the "contingency" in the non -department division. The compensation to be paid to the County for these services, as provided herein, shall be in full payment for all County's related services and expenses incurred in the performance hereof, including travel and per diem costs.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The budgetary fiscal impact of the recommendation is $340,000 in the General Services Division of the General Fund.
