Care Facility (Facility), left City service on December 29, 2007; and

Veterinary Premise Permit; and
WHEREAS, the State Veterinarian Board has indicated that many municipalities have
elected to contract these services out in order to comply with the State regulations; and
WHEREAS, on December 29,2007, the City entered into an agreement with Dr. Ginny
Bischel, DVM, in which Dr. Bischel agreed to place her name on the Veterinary Premise Permit
for the Facility, assist staff in reviewing the operations of the Facility, and find a permanent long-
term solution for the provision of veterinarian services and a Veterinary Premise Permit, among
other duties; and
WHEREAS, on February 7, 2008, the City entered into an agreement with Dr. Kendra A.
Jiannuzzi, DVM, in which Dr. Jiannuzzi agreed to provide veterinary services and treatment at
the Facility; and
WHEREAS, both agreements will expire on June 30, 2008; and
WHEREAS, staff suggests that the term of Dr. Jiannuzzi's agreement be for a one-year
period with the option extend the term for a three additional one-year terms upon approval of the
City Manager; and
WHEREAS, staff recommends the City Council waive the formal consultant selection
process outlined in Municipal Code section 2.56.110 for both Dr. Bischel and Dr. Jiannuzzi
because Dr. Bischel and Dr. Jiannuzzi have been providing excellent service to the Facility and
the scope of work for these agreements is a natural extension of their on-going work for the City,
making it impractical to solicit proposals.
