TITLE:
A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE PAYMENT OF $1,321.46 FROM THE COUNCIL
CONTINGENCIES ACCOUNT IN THE 2011 GENERAL FUND BUDGET TO PUEBLO
COUNTY AS REIMBURSEMENT FOR CERTAIN REPAIR COSTS AT THE ANIMAL SHELTER
ISSUE:
Should the City Council approve a Resolution authorizing payment of $1,321.46 from the
Council Contingencies Account in the 2011 General Fund Budget to Pueblo County for
reimbursement of the City’s share of the labor and material costs for swamp cooler and water
heater repairs at the Animal Shelter?
RECOMMENDATION:
Administration recommends approval of this Resolution.
BACKGROUND:
Ordinance No. 7959 amended a contract for services between the City of Pueblo, the Board of
County Commissioners, and the Humane Society of the Pikes Peak Region relating, in part, to
the City and County’s responsibility to pay for repairs at the animal shelter involving costs in
excess of $1,000 in any one instance, provided those repairs are not caused by negligent acts
or omissions of the Society.
Pueblo County followed their bid procedures, arranged to have the work performed, and paid for
the work. These projects exceed $1,000 and are not the result of negligent acts or omission;
therefore, Pueblo County is seeking reimbursement from the City in the amount of $551.76 for
swamp cooler repairs and $769.70 for water heater repairs.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Funds in the amount of $1,321.46 from the Council Contingencies Account will be appropriated
to Pueblo County as reimbursement for the City’s share of repairs made at the Animal Shelter
(see attached spreadsheet for the balance in the contingencies account).
