CAPISTRANO, CALIFORNIA, RECOMMENDS THAT THE ORANGE
COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS CONSIDER THE DEVELOPMENT
OF A SOUTH COUNTY ANIMAL SHELTER
WHEREAS, the Orange County Animal Care Services operates the County's Animal
Shelter under the auspices of the County of Orange Health Care Agency, and the City of
San Juan Capistrano has contracted with the County of Orange for Animal Care Services
since the City incorporated in 1961; and
WHEREAS, the County of Orange Animal Shelter has been operating at the same
North County location in the City of Orange since the 1940's, and the location is now
antiquated and too small to meet current needs; and
WHEREAS, the County is actively seeking a new location to accommodate the
County's animal care needs in another North County location; and
WHEREAS, numerous volunteer animal protection and rescue groups have
organized and developed over the years to provide additional County support for lost and
or abandoned animal sheltering needs, and are ready willing and able to provide volunteer
staffing assistance and financial support; and
WHEREAS, the South County population has grown dramatically over the years, it
makes sense to consider development of an additional animal shelter location to
accommodate the needs of South County.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of San
Juan Capistrano does hereby approve and adopt the recommendation that the Orange
County Board of Supervisors consider, at a Board meeting laterthis year, the development
of an additional animal shelter in South County.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of San Juan
Capistrano does hereby encourage the other South County cities using the County of
Orange Animal Shelter to join in asking the County to take on this task.
