Tri-County Animal Control contract approved with termination clause amid rising costs

Floyd County Board of Commissioners · December 16, 2025

Summary

The county approved a revised contract for Tri-County Animal Control that includes language allowing the county to terminate the agreement at its discretion as costs rise over coming years; the board acted by unanimous vote after Attorney Kristi Fox outlined the changes.

Attorney Kristi Fox told commissioners that edits to the Tri-County Animal Control contract add language reflecting cost increases over the next several years and a termination-at-discretion clause to give the county flexibility if costs become unsustainable. The board voted unanimously to approve the contract.

Fox said the revisions were intended to protect the county’s fiscal position as service costs climb; the minutes record the motion to approve was made by Jason Sharp and seconded by Frank Loop. The minutes do not list specific dollar figures for the contract or the schedule of cost increases; procurement and contract administration will be handled by county staff.
