Council hears update: animal shelter prefers service agreement; county inmate housing costs noted
Summary
Councilmember Adam Clark said the Animal Shelter prefers a service agreement rather than an operations agreement because the latter would subject them to KORA; Clark also reported Chautauqua County charges $55 per day to house inmates and urged transparency if city funds are provided to the shelter.
Councilmember Adam Clark told colleagues that the Animal Shelter does not want an operations agreement because it would be subject to KORA and that the shelter prefers a service agreement. Clark said the city is not opposed to providing funding but that taxpayers should know how their money will be used.
Clark also said Chautauqua County charges $55 per day to house inmates and listed what that fee includes. No formal action was taken at the meeting to change the city's relationship with the shelter; the discussion was recorded as an update to the council.
