PERSONNEL
TOWN OF TRUCKEE
2013/14 ANNUAL BUDGET DETAIL PUBLIC SAFETY - ANIMAL SERVICES
The function of the Animal Services Department is to plan, supervise, coordinate, and participate in the enforcement of State Codes and Town ordinances governing the keeping of domestic animals within the Town of Truckee. Activities include the operation of a new animal shelter, a licensing program and vaccination clinics, as well as administration of the Abandoned Vehicle Abatement program, which provides for the removal of abandoned, wrecked or inoperable vehicles within Town limits. Kennel services are provided to Sierra County through contract. New this year, Animal Services is managed as a Division of the Police Department. As part of the move under the Police Department, Animal Services Officers will be reclassified as Community Services Officers.
We broke ground on the new Community Animal Shelter facility in June 2012. Construction continued through the 2012/13 budget year with the opening of the Shelter anticipated early in the 2013/14 budget year. Other activities during the 2013/14 budget year include continued employee training related to customer service, safety, and training related to the current status on all laws, regulations, and procedures. The Community Spay/Neuter Program, which is administered along with the Humane Society of Truckee-Tahoe, will also be continued this year. The program offers low and no cost spaying and neutering to qualifying pet owners within the Town. Officers will again be conducting dog license follow ups during the year to clear the back log of expired licenses. Contract services are anticipated to continue with Sierra County.
For calendar year 2012, the Department licensed 1,884 dogs, 92% of which were spayed or neutered ; 406 animals were impounded; 173 citations were issued; and 38 animal bites were handled. The Community Spay/Neuter program helped to provide 119 low cost surgeries for the pets of Town residents. The total number of logged activities for 2012 was 1,269.
