'ADDITION TO CASE #6 PET CLINIC BID Further Background: I received one bid for the pet clinic and that was from AMVET of Elk River. AMVET bid the prices the same as last year. They were awarded the bid last year and conducted a very well- organized clinic, plus Dr. Gilgenbach and his staff were a pleasure to work with. Staff is planning to add a small fee to the bid prices as we have done in the past couple of years to help defray some of the administrative costs. Last year the bid prices for the vaccinations were $3 for rabies, $9 for DHLP-P and $6 for Pan RC-C-P. With the City tacking on a small fee, the shots were $6, $10 and $8. I contacted the Cities of Andover, Anoka, Elk River and Ham Lake to inquire about their pet clinic prices. They are as follows: Anoka: $6 for rabies, $12 for DHLP-P and $7 for Pan RC-C-P (that's $.50 per shot less than last year); Ham Lake: $5 for rabies, $10 for DHLP-P and $10 for Pan RC-C-P (that's the same rate as last year); and Andover: $5 for rabies, $15 for DHLP-P and $15 for Pan RC-C-P (Andover did not host a pet clinic last year); and Elk River's rates were unavailable. Staffis recommending adding $3 to the rabies vaccination, making it $6, $1 to the DHLP-P for a total of $10 and $2 to the Pan RC-C-P making that vaccination $8. That would be exactly the same rates as last year. Reviewed by: Copies also distributed to: City Administrator Finance Officer Administrative Services Manager CC: 04/08/97 PETCLIN. DOC
