► One Plan Review Specialist would be reclassified as a Data System Administrator &
Plan Review Coordinator.
► One Plan Review Specialist would be hired.
► To address pay scale compaction and to maintain pay equity in the salary
grades, salaries would have to be increased. (It was noted that a two-step
difference in pay grades between the director's position and the planning
supervisor's position had to be maintained. The reorganization/reclassifications
would entail a two-step increase.)
Mr. Niblock said no additional funding would be needed to implement the plan,
and a savings of $14,550 could be realized in this year's budget.
The reorganization/reclassifications will become effective September 1, 2005.
8. Request from the Animal Control Department for the Establishment of a
Permanent Part -Time Kennel Position with the Employee to Work Weekends &
Holidays: Chief Animal Control Officer Robb Tatham said at the briefing session that
no new money would be needed this year to hire a permanent part-time employee to
work weekends and holidays, but funding would be needed next year. He said five
years ago, a person was on staff who worked the designated time periods. Tatham said
$4,700 needed to be transferred from regular salaries (lapsed salary funds) to the part-time
salaries fund. He said the part-time employee would allow the other officers to perform more
patrol or field calls rather than staying at the shelter and cleaning the kennels. Tatham said
another advantage would be in the reduction of overtime hours for the animal control officers.
9. Request from the Animal Control Department for Approval to Increase Fees Due
to Increased Prices in the Spay/Neuter Clinic: Chief Animal Control Officer Robb Tatham
explained at the briefing session that the spay/neuter clinic had increased its prices and this
would necessitate a departmental fee increase. The following fee proposal was shared.

Does Proposed Current
Females $80.00' $70.00
Males $60.00* $60.00
*Additional charges for dogs over 40 lbs is $10. For larger dogs, additional charges may be as
much as $25 (extra fee to be determined by spay/neuter clinic).
Cats Proposed Current

Males $40.00 $40.00
(The clinic is no longer honoring feral prices. In the past, the cost was $30 for either sex.)

but the cost of the vaccinations will go up to $10 each.
General public vaccination costs will be $10 for each vaccination.
