In-house sterilization is projected to be <br /> more cost-effective than the present practice of transporting adoptable animals back and <br /> forth to local veterinary clinics where they are spayed/neutered for standard fees. <br /> • Increases in Personnel Services for FY 2009-1❑ includes the full year funding of a <br /> Veterinary Health Care Technician (1.0 FTE) that was effective January 1, 2009. There is <br /> also an increase in non-permanent personnel needed to assist contractual veterinarian with <br /> the in-house sterilizations, but this is offset with a reduction in operations as part of resource <br /> realignment. A <br /> Merged Animal Shelter and Animal Control operational expenses to the Administrative <br /> division to achieve efficiency and ensure effective administration. <br /> Changes In service Delivery ($42,968 Reduction): <br /> Eliminate the micro chipping of adopted pets (while still offering it on an elective basis) <br /> ■ Eliminate school educational programs <br /> 0 Eliminate bathing and grooming of adopted pets. <br /> Reduce animal related supplies <br /> 4-1 <br />
