Santa Cruz County approves Location 5 for new Animal Care and Control headquarters
Summary
The Santa Cruz County board approved Location 5 as the site for a new Animal Care and Control Services headquarters and authorized staff to proceed; board members noted the decision could be revisited later.
The Santa Cruz County board approved Location 5 as the site for a new Animal Care and Control Services headquarters following a motion and second during a board meeting.
Board members and staff said the vote moves the selection forward but does not permanently lock in the site. A county staff member told the board that it could table the item, vote to approve it now, and still change the site at a later date if needed.
Speaker 2 (board member) moved to approve Location 5 as the site for the new Animal Care and Control Services headquarters; Speaker 1 (chair/presiding officer) and other members seconded and the motion carried.
County staff explained the motion at a high level and confirmed the vote would be a recommendation that could be revisited. As one staff member summarized, “The board can choose to table this. The board can choose to, go ahead and vote on this. Certainly, I think even if the board voted to agree to the the site today, would not prohibit the board from, changing that later.”
The board did not record a roll-call tally in the public transcript provided; the chair called for those in favor and then announced the motion carried.
The remainder of the meeting moved on to other agenda items.
