BACKGROUND: The Joint Powers Agreement with Riverside County Animal Control made reference to Ord. No. 534. 5 and No. Ord. 716, which the City never approved. II. DISCUSSION: I first discussed the above with the Contract Administrator, who advised that that portion of the agreement should be left blank. Later, Jim Olguin contacted me and advised that the County recommends that the City adopt the ordinances. The adoption of these ordinances will give the Animal Control Officers the power to issue citations. Ord. No. 534. 5 covers the control of all domestic animals other than dogs and cats; specifically farm type animals. Currently, the "not permitted use" section of the Zoning Ordinance allows the City to control such classifications coming into our jurisdiction and enables us to enforce compliance with the ordinance. Ord. No. 716 speaks specifically to cruelty to animals. III. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that Council adopt Riverside County Ordinances 534. 5 and 716 as presented. 7 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: APPROVED DENIED , RECEIVED,7 (� OTHER WAYNE L RAMSEY 4 a� _ U� ,.J �EEfING U i.: -aS- (Q1- ACTING IRECTOR OF CODE COMPL0Ii E /�ti `/\ +c cia SS'yl n�s�/1 (M�^'="", /fr r".E ENT:l ABSTAIN: _ i _____-..__......._ .
