CASE# F~-~ 4 REPORT ON 1996 COMMUNITY EVENTS By: Jessie Hart, Finance Officer Background: As you are well aware, most of the 1996 Community Events have taken place. The following briefly summarizes the results of each event this year. Annual Pet Clinic The 1996 Annual Pet Clinic was held on Saturday, April 27, 1996, at Central Park. As in past years, there was a very good turnout, even though it was a bit on the "chilly" side. In an attempt to try and "smooth" the flow of activities, we employed enough staff help to provide two ongoing lines and a "floater" position for relief and to act as the "go-for". Other than part-time help that was used, staff time was earned as compensatory time and taken off in the same payperiod and amounted to approximately 24.5 hours for hourly employees [$236.14] 6 hours for exempt employees [$138.77] and another 7.5 hours for paid part-time help [$38.68]. The total cost for employees was approximately $413.59. Other costs associated with the operation of the pet clinic would be utilities and associated building use costs [it is not possible to accurately estimate this cost]. A brief summary of the days activities follows: Licenses Issued: Dogs 266 Cats 61 Note: The fees generated from the issuance of dog and cat licenses totaled $1,188.00. As in past years, licenses were provided at a reduced rate. Vaccinations Administered: Rabies - Dogs 252 Cats 87 Distemper 296 PanRC 86 Note: Per the contract with the providing clinic, the City received a total of $1, 485. O0 in returns on the vaccinations administered. The amounts charged the customers for the various vaccinations was reduced significantly [$6. O0 - $12.00] from the office visit prices [$20. O0 - 7. oo]. It is the intention of the City that the required contributions back from the provider on vaccinations be enough to cover the City's cost of providing the clinic. The contribution to the City from the shots was $1.00 - $3.00, depending on the vaccination type. The City netted approximately $1,071.41 on the day, not including the sale of the pet licenses, which brings the total to $2,259.41.
