Introduction: The Mounds View Police Department has contracted with the Otter Lake Animal Hospital since March of 2018 for animal impound services. Otter Lake Animal Hospital has recently informed all area law enforcement that they will no longer offer this service. Discussion: The Police Department has reached out to several different animal clinics and we were able to find an animal control service in the metro area who agreed to contract with the Mounds View Police Department for impound services. Companion Animal Control LLC & Companion Animal Care LLC (CACC) agreed to offer animal impound services. Companion Animal Control LLC & Companion Animal Care LLC (CACC) is currently building a facility in Oakdale and they will be ready to receive animals in late August of 2025 once the facility is open. Otter Lake Animal Hospital has agreed to continue services until CACC is open and ready to take animals. Basic fees for this service include but are not limited to: • A monthly retainer to reserve kennel boarding kennels for animals from municipality of $100 • A monthly availability retainer to provide animal control services 24/7/365 of $30 • Standard stray, seized, or abandonment fee of $200 per canine not reclaimed by its owner Recommendation: Staff recommends approving the animal impound services agreement with Companion Animal Control LLC & Companion Animal Care LLC. Respectfully Submitted, Ben Zender Chief of Police
