49) Animal Control 2003-2008 Actuals and 2009 Budget

The shelter handles about the same number of cats as dogs, only most cats are killed.

Do you see any revenue generated by cats? Not much.

The Dog Law provides the license fee may be set sufficient to cover the cost of administering the Dog Law as it pertains to dogs. This county is generating profit from dog licenses. That is wrong! and a violation of the dog law.

2003 looks like big loss, but I don't have the treasurer's expense

2004 Big loss (as it should be) but doesn't appear as big a loss as 2003

2004 also reduced staff / budget

2005 Doubled and Tripled dog license fee / now shows a profit (wrong)

2005 after assuring the increased license fees would go into the shelter (did not)

etc

There should always be a big loss as the animal control department handles ALL animal complaints. Dog license fees are only legally designated to cover administering the dog law.
