FROM: Don Hickerson, Chief of Police
SUBJECT: Animal Control Services
After reviewing pr:op.o_sa;l;s for animal control services from Minnesota
Animal Patrol Services, Inc. (MAPSI) and White Bear Animal Control ,
Inc. (WBAC) , I recommend that we accept the two year contract with
WBAC for the following reasons:
A. Price per hour of patrol is identical ($17.50 per hour).
B. WBAC has a one hour minimum on weekdays from 6PM to 6AM
and on weekends while MAPSI has a two hour minimum after
1OPM on weekdays and weekends.
C. Price per animal per day or fraction thereof to board
impounded animals is 50 .cents per day less at WBAC.
D. Price per animal for euthanasia is 50 cents less at WBAC.
Additionally, we have been experiencing extremely long delays in response
with MAPSI sometimes necessitating as many as four calls. Citizens have
registered complaints about the service as well as officers of our depart-
ment. I have discussed animal control services with a number of Chiefs of
• other communities and those using WBAC have received far better service
than they did using MAPSI.
At this time, MAPSI responds from B-l.aine"while WBAC will be responding from
506 11th Avenue North, Minneapolis.
The only increase in the second year of the WBAC contract will be a 90 cent
per hour increase for patrol ($18.40 per hour) and a similar increase for
unscheduled call-out service ($18.40) .
