Davis County commissioners approve a series of contracts, table animal-care item

The Davis County Commission on Jan. 21, 2025, tabled an animal-care agenda item and approved a slate of county contracts and amendments across multiple departments, including a disaster-records agreement for the clerk's office, a website services amendment, an audit engagement letter, behavioral-health funding, event sponsorships and facility work at the South Davis Senior Center.

The move to table the animal-care item was announced at the start of the meeting after a county staff member said Animal Care asked that the item be postponed until the following week. Commissioners then called for and approved a motion to table that item.

The county’s elected clerk, Bridal McKenzie, described two items from her office. One is an agreement with BELFOR USA Group that would allow the county to call on disaster restoration services “as it relates to preserving and restoring records, if they were damaged.” McKenzie said there is no financial obligation unless the county uses BELFOR’s services; the contract includes an exhibit with a fee schedule. She also described an amendment to the county’s contract with CivicPlus that removes a historical import charge and adds single sign-on functionality; McKenzie said the amendment “is a net increase to our cost of this of 3,100 or $3,133.12” with an ongoing annual cost of $1,733 and a term from 11/27/24 through 11/27/25.
