Willow St., Kenai, Alaska 99611 1III'I Telephone: 907 - 283 -7879 / FAX: 907 - 283 -2267 1992 MEMO: TO: Rick Koch — City Manager FROM: Gus Sandahl — Police Chief DATE: 1/9/15 SUBJECT: Request Resolution Amending Fee Schedule I am requesting the following amendments to the City Fee Schedule: 1. Animal Control - Add to Animal Control Fees: KMC 3.05. 1 00(a)(5) Insertion of Microchip $5.10. Authorization to charge a fee for "Insertion of Microchip" is already listed in KMC 3.05.100(a)(5). The purchase of Animal microchips was approved in the FYI budget. The requested fee is the City's actual cost, with no mark -up. The implementation of the microchip service will ensure that all cats and dogs adopted out of the Kenai Animal Shelter receive a microchip identifier. This service will enhance the ability of Animal Shelters to reunite owners with lost/stolen pets via microchip scans. 2. Animal Control — Amend/Increase Animal Control Fees: KMC 3.25.060 Veterinary Service — Canine Spaying or Neutering* $112.20 Canine Spaying, Large Breed (over 60lbs but less than 100lbs) ** $153.00 Canine Spaying, Large Breed (over 100lbs) * ** $204.00 Veterinary Service — Cat Spaying * * ** $102.00 Veterinary Service - Cat Neutering * * * ** $76.50 Veterinary Service - Rabies Vaccination * * * * ** $25.50 * $110.00 payable to veterinarian upon submission of certificate of service. ** $150.00 payable to veterinarian upon submission of certificate of service. * * * $200.00 payable to veterinarian upon submission of certificate of service * * ** $100.00 payable to veterinarian upon submission of certificate of service. * * * ** $75.00 payable to veterinarian upon submission of certificate of service. * * * * ** $25.00 payable to veterinarian upon submission of certificate of service. The above fee increases reflect reasonable, periodic adjustments to ensure that the local veterinary clinic does not receive unreasonably low reimbursement rates. Even with the increases, the rates still represent a significant discount for veterinary services to shelter animals. Fees for these services were last adjusted in 2010 and it was anticipated at that time that additional increased were needed in the following years. 3. Police — Delete previous "Police Fees" and replace with the following updated fee schedule: Report Copies (per page) $0.50 CD/DVD with Digital Media (per) $25.00 Duplication of other media Actual Cost Reproduction Cost (for time spent in excess of 5 hours) Actual Cost This adjustment will result in lower costs to those seeking copies of police reports. The previous research fee of $10 is being removed, as are other outdated fee services.
