ITEM EXPLANATION
(4/5TH'S VOTE REQUIRED YES
NO _lJ
For the past few years, National City has contracted with Chula Vista for the use of
our Animal Shelter facil itieso After an initial contact with National City in June of
this year, the 1978-79 agreement was extended by mutual consent while the terms of a
new contract were being analyzed by both partieso As a result of this effort, the
attached agreement was approved by the National City Council on September 11, 19790
Basically, the agreement has the same provisions as in past yearso However, the agree-
ment does specify a change in the method of animal disposal (nitrogen gas chamber) and
an increase in the monthly feeso
The increase in fees is based on an increase in employee salaries and utility costs
and a decrease in the projected revenue from the adoption and redemption of National
City animals (see attached cost analysis)o Specifically, the estimated revenue of
$7,978 did not materialize during the current yearo Included in this figure was in-
cluded approximately $4,000 to be collected from an increase in National City charges
to adopt or redeem an animalo However, the larger fees were never authorizedo
In addition, the analysis of relevant costs has been revised this yearo A 7-year amor-
tization of the nitrogen cabinet is included as a new itemo Further, the annual de-
preciation of the shelter facility has been extended from 20 to 40 yearso Although
20 years is a reasonable period of time for most buildings, 40 years is more realistic
for a building of this natureo
These factors requir.e an increase in the monthly fee from $925 to $1,1800 The new fee
will be retroactive to July 1, 1979 and extend through June 30,19800 We have withheld
billing until the agreement is approved by both City Councilso
