Board approves animal-control kennel work; transcript shows unclear large figure for vendor cost

Lapeer County Board of Commissioners · May 23, 2025

Summary

The board authorized the animal control director to contract for fencing and outdoor kennels and approved up to $40,000 from the Friends of Lapeer County animal control funds for concrete and fence staining; the transcript records a contractor line item of $3,535,102.39 in the motion, which appears inconsistent with the stated $40,000 project cap and is flagged for clarification.

The board authorized the county animal control director to proceed with TMF Services LLC for installation of outdoor kennels and associated fencing, and further authorized the chair and vice-chair to sign the agreement. The motion specified funding from Friends of Lapeer County animal control funds and stated there would be no additional cost to the county general fund.

The motion's transcript records an apparent discrepancy: the contract line reads "at the cost of $3,535,102 dollars and 39¢ with the understanding that the concrete pad and staining of the privacy fence be completed at the total project cost not to exceed $40,000 to be paid for from friends of Lapeer County animal control funds." The $40,000 cap for the concrete work and staining is clear in the discussion; the larger dollar figure appears to be a transcription or typographical error and should be verified with county finance and the county clerk's office before publication.
