Public Safety Element, Goal 6.0: Provide public safety services of the highest quality.
7. DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND
Since 1976, the City of Orange has contracted for complete animal services with the County of
Orange. These services include animal care field services, special services, shelter services, and
barking dog complaint services. In May 2016, the City entered into a 10-year Participation
Agreement and accompanying Service Agreement funding construction of a new county-operated
animal shelter. The terms of the agreement include the option for each city to pay its proportional
amount of the new animal shelter costs upfront in a lump sum or paying it over a ten-year period
at an interest rate of less than 0.77%. Lastly, no "new" city will be added to OCAC for three
years to allow for appropriate sizing and establishing operational protocols for the new shelter.
The County's total construction costs for the new shelter is $34.5 million. The cumulative 14
cities' portion is $27.3 million and the County is paying $7.2 million. Orange's share of the
cities portion of costs represents 9.94% based on the number of client cities and the historic
demand for services from the County. As such, the total amount owed by the City of Orange is
$2.7 million with quarterly payments over a ten year period. Along with Orange, there are 14
cities (Anaheim, Cypress, Tustin, Santa Ana, Yorba Linda, San Juan Capistrano, Fountain
Valley, Brea, Placentia, Fullerton, Lake Farest, Villa Park, and Huntington Beach) that are
participating in the construction of the new Orange County animal shelter.
At the Board of Supervisors' meeting on April 12, 2016, the Board approved an award to Snyder
Langston L.P. for design and construction of a new OC Animal Care Facility. The project is a
design build project and has completed some major milestones. Attachment I is the March 2017
Project Update with project details. Final completion of the project is scheduled for mid-
December. The County is also in the process of hiring a Fundraising Consultant to help develop
a marketing plan and conduct a capital campaign to provide additional funding for the animal
shelter.
