Council OKs $12,000 annual contract with Hill Country Humane Society for animal intake
Summary
The council approved an increase in the city's annual payment to the Hill Country Humane Society from $10,000 to $12,000 for FY2025–26 to cover rising expenses for animal intake and care.
Council approved an amended animal-shelter adoption center agreement with the Hill Country Humane Society that raises the city's annual payment from $10,000 to $12,000 for fiscal year 2025–26. City staff said the increase reflects rising operating costs at the shelter and follows discussions with shelter representatives.
During the presentation staff noted the city previously paid $10,000 annually and that the additional funding is intended to continue shelter arrangements for stray animals and reduce the city's on-site handling costs. The motion to accept the amended agreement passed on a council voice vote.
