RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Ordinance No. 2019-32, establishing the times when late fees accrue on unpaid animal license fees.

FISCAL IMPACT:

It is estimated that the proposed ordinance changes will generate approximately $108,020 per fiscal year.

BACKGROUND:

On June 26, 2012, the Board of Supervisors adopted Resolution No. 2012/170 approving the Animal Services Department’s current fee schedule. The Animal Services Director recently conducted a fee study and identified that an ordinance revision was necessary for a late fee time-frame for animal licenses. The proposed ordinance change will bring the Department inline with the proposed fee schedule changes approved by the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors on November 12, 2019.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Failure to adopt this ordinance will result in a loss of revenue to the Department.
