Council approves $200 donation for Eagle Scout—s planned rabies vaccination clinic
Summary
An Eagle Scout candidate requested town support for a free rabies clinic; council voted to donate $200 to assist advertising or supplies and asked staff to coordinate outreach and ratify details by email with formal ratification next month.
Clay Urens, a self-identified Eagle Scout candidate, presented a proposal to organize a free rabies vaccination clinic at the animal shelter before September. Urens said he had secured permission from his scouting council, spoken with the animal shelter and recruited veterinarian support and that he sought funding for roughly 500 vaccinations at about $6 per vaccine (approximately $3,000) and help with advertising.
Council members asked clarifying questions about vaccination frequency and state paperwork. One councilor moved and another seconded a motion to donate $200 to the project to support clinic costs or advertising; the motion passed on a voice vote. Staff agreed to contact Urens to confirm dates and logistics and to place the donation on the next council agenda for ratification if required by policy.
