(ASAB Chair) Board Action A motion was made by Jeff Forrester to accept and place on file the 2023 first-quarter statistical information for shelter operations, as presented. Amber Porter seconded to accept and place on file the 2023 first-quarter statistical information for shelter operations, as presented. A vote was taken, and the motion passed unanimously. Shelia Patton stated that we are going to be collecting numbers for TNR by PD zones. We also still need to contact rescue groups and mobile home parks to collaborate with their TNR programs as well. Jeff Forrester said he likes the idea of using the PD zones for continuity. He would like to number of animals released added to this report. Also, in front of the council several months ago, citizens were concerned about the colonies being monitored and controlled, and I think showing information would help people understand that we are paying attention and that there is a program in place to help mitigate the feral cat issue. Amber Porter asked if we have enough equipment. Shelia Patton said we currently have enough equipment, but we have requested more funds in case we require more equipment. It is more about obtaining the appointments for sterilization. We are currently building a rapport with the vets for a standing appointment. The program is new, but I know that it's going to work, and we're very positive about that, and it will help maintain a healthy population. WORK SESSION WSl. Discuss the status of the Board's recommendation related to the Request for a Proposal for a shelter needs assessment study. Shelia Patton reported that a request for a mid -year budget amendment for the RFP was not submitted. It was recommended that we request it for our regular budget.
