SPECIMEN HEAD PREPARATION AND SHIPMENT Per Animal Head Specimen $200.00 per specimen Renewal of CSO 54667 Page 4 of 4 ILA—CFW and Kennedale Official site ofthe City ofFort Worth,Texas City Council Agenda ®❑ DATE: 8/25/2020 REFERENCE**M&C LOG NAME: 23RABIES CONTROL VARIOUS NO.: 20-0595 MUNICIPALITIES 2021 CODE: C TYPE: CONSENT PUBLICNO HEARING: SUBJECT: (ALL) Authorize Execution of Interlocal Agreements with Tarrant County and the Cities of Benbrook, Kennedale, and Pantego for the Purpose of Providing Limited Animal and Rabies Control Services and Rabies Specimen Shipments During Fiscal Year 2021 with Renewal Options RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council authorize the execution of Interlocal Agreements with Tarrant County and the cities of Benbrook, Kennedale, and Pantego for the purpose of providing limited animal and rabies control services and rabies specimen shipments through September 30, 2021 with the option to renew, by mutual written agreement of the parties, for up to two additional one-year terms. DISCUSSION: The Code Compliance Department, Animal Care and Control Division, has historically assisted Tarrant County and various municipalities within the county by providing limited animal control services and processing and shipping of specimens to the Bureau of Laboratories in Austin for testing related to rabies control. Services associated with processing specimens include the kenneling of impounded animals, euthanasia, disposal services and specimen shipping. Section 791.011 of the Texas Government Code provides that a local government may contract with another local government to perform "governmental functions and services," which includes functions and services related to public health and welfare. Under this provision, the City of Fort Worth (City) may enter into an Interlocal Agreement so that the Animal Care and Control Division may provide animal control, animal impoundment, boarding, quarantine, euthanasia and disposal services to a municipality. Approval of the above recommendation will authorize Interlocal Agreements for Fiscal Year 2021 In addition, the term may be extended by mutual written agreement of the parties, for up to two additional one-year terms. Renewals do not require City Council approval. The City would provide the specified services to following entities: • The City of Benbrook is contracting for specimen shipment services only; • The City of Kennedale and Town of Pantego are contracting for boarding, quarantine, specimen shipping, euthanasia, animal care and disposal services; • Tarrant County is contracting for the services listed above plus periodic routine animal control services and education services by request.
