ATTACHMENT A. SHELTER UPGRADE FOR 2002-03 <br /> First, let us thank you for the air conditioning from last;year's request. The air <br /> conditioning in the Isolation Area and Green Wing/Yellow Wing areas has made <br /> a positive impact on the health of the animals and also helps the kennel <br /> technicians get through the dog days of summer. <br /> This year we have a series of small items, but each is critical to our operations. <br /> 1. The Shelter seriously needs three wall cabinet units in'the medical room to <br /> hold the various medicines and paraphernalia used in physical exams and <br /> for treating injured and sick animals. With the level of adoptions and the <br /> numbers of animals that need blood drawn passing through this room, <br /> efficiency is compromised when the technicians cannot have their supplies <br /> well organized. With the cabinets, we.can organize supplies that are used <br /> on an hour-to-hour basis so the health care technicians can handle the <br /> animals more effectively. Each unit is$500, total$1,500. <br /> TOTAL- $1,500 <br /> 2. ' Flooring for the front office area, bathrooms and medical room.. The floor <br /> is very old and cracking, and for both appearance and for maintaining <br /> bacteria-free areas, this replacement will make a big difference and it will <br /> last through the five years we have left here. The total cost installed, for <br /> seamless vinyl flooring: <br /> TOTAL: $3,893 <br /> 3. We need to replace GUIL07INE DOORS that were damaged during the <br /> pit bull era. Not only is it not healthful for the animals (because of drafts) <br /> during the winter months, but we are heating the out-of-doors through the <br /> holes at the bottom of these doors that are in disrepair. We need: <br /> 18"x30" <br /> 10 needed at$75 each <br /> TOTAL: $750 <br /> 4. Rabies vaccine to vaccinate approximately 1,500 more animals against <br /> rabies while sheltered: <br /> TOTAL: $1,367. <br /> 1. wall cabinets... 1,500 <br /> 2. flooring.......... 3,893 <br /> 3. guillotine doors...... 750 <br /> 4. rabies vaccine....... 1,367Ih bui <br /> Total: $7,510 <br /> 12 <br />
