Financial Impact:
Funds are from forfeited and/or unclaimed spay and neuter deposits and civil penalties collected and held in account 431-301800. Pursuant to California Food and Agriculture Code Section 30521(c) these funds can only be used for this type of activity.
Background Information:
The Division of Animal Services purchased a mobile veterinary van in December of 2022. The Division has made some improvements to this unit to allow the van to serve as a spay/neuter clinic. While some of the upgrades were covered by a grant award, the improvements in this requested action fell outside the grant parameters. The Division is seeking to use funds from the Spay/Neuter Trust to pay for these improvements.
