PASADENA HUMANE SOCIETY MUNICIPAL ANIMAL CONTROL SHELTER SYSTEM AND RABIES CONTROL PROGRAM

It is recommended that the City Council:
1 Authorize payment to the Pasadena Humane Society for animal control shelter
system and rabies control services rendered from July 1,2010 to present, totaling
$233,926.96;
2. Authorize the City Manager to contract, without competitive bidding pursuant
to City Charter Section 1002(F), contracts for professional or unique services,
with the Pasadena Humane Society and SPCA for operation of a municipal
animal control program, animal shelter system and rabies control program on
an month to month basis for a period of up to 12 months at an amount not to
exceed $88,985.83 per month; and
3. Grant this contract an exemption from the competitive selection process of
the Competitive Bidding and Purchasing Ordinance pursuant to P.M.C.
4.08.049(6) contracts for which the City's best interests are served.


The negotiating of a new contract has been complicated by the Humane
Society's request for financial support from the City for its proposed expansion
project. As envisioned, the expansion of the Humane Society will include a new
two-story 31,531 square-foot kennelltreatment facility located on the site north of
the existing facility.
