Nassau board approves Pineview kennel contract for animal boarding
Summary
The board approved a dog-boarding contract with Pineview Kennels at about $30 per day (up to 10 days) plus a $150 annual fee and agreed to reimburse vet costs if required; the contract aims to provide reliable local boarding for stray or impounded animals.
The Village of Nassau approved an animal boarding agreement with Pineview Kennels to provide temporary housing for dogs the village needs to kennel, at a rate described as roughly $30 per day and up to 10 days, plus a $150 annual licensing fee. Mayor Robert Valente recommended approval to ensure the village has a reliable boarding option when officers pick up stray or found dogs.
Trustee Ryan Bush explained past difficulties finding contractors willing to accept village animals and said Pineview provided reasonable pricing compared with prior arrangements; the board approved the contract by voice vote. Trustees noted that additional veterinary costs, such as required shots, would be billed to the village as extra when incurred.
