County approves $4,000 in PILT funds for June spay/neuter clinic; organizers expect to alter about 200 pets
Summary
Commissioners approved a $4,000 PILT allocation to fund two veterinarians at a community spay/neuter clinic scheduled for June; volunteer Cindy Filler told the board partners and local donations will support the event and organizers expect to alter roughly 200 animals.
The Lincoln County Board of Commissioners approved a $4,000 payment from PILT (Payment in Lieu of Taxes) funds to help staff a community spay/neuter clinic planned for June 7–8.
An applicant asked the board for $4,000 to pay for two veterinarians; Kyr (presenter unnamed in the transcript) said the clinic will operate at the high school and that other partners and organizations are covering additional costs. Volunteer Cindy Filler, representing Cody Pets for Life, told commissioners that with three veterinarians (two funded by the county and one by partners) and volunteer support, organizers expect to alter at least 200 pets. She described local donations of facilities, lunches and laundry services and encouraged the county to support the event.
A motion to approve the $4,000 from PILT funds passed by voice vote. Staff were instructed to mark the claim as PILT when filing the reimbursement paperwork.
