The current agreement has been in place since 2001. The <br /> Alameda County Sheriff's Department has been operating the facility since <br /> it opened in 1995. <br /> <br />Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council: <br /> <br />BACKGROUND <br /> <br />This county animal shelter located on Gleason Avenue in the City of Dublin, opened in 1995. <br />The shelter, which is jointly owned by the cities of Pleasanton, Livermore, and Dublin and <br />Alameda County, (here and after refer to as "owners") provides a range of domestic animal <br />services to the Tri-Valley area. <br /> <br />Prior to the shelter opening in 1995, the owners circulated a request for proposal to identify an <br />entity to operate and maintain the shelter. After reviewing all options, the owners determined <br />that the best option for this service was to contract with the Alameda County Sheriff's <br />Department, which provided operation and maintenance service to the old animal shelter <br />building. As a result, in 1995, the owners entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with the <br />Sheriff's Department for this service. <br /> <br /> SR 05:129 <br />Page 1 <br /> <br /> <br />
