STAFF REPORT
Since 1980, the City has permitted Cal Trans employees access to
the Animal Shelter freezer for the purpose of depositing carcasses
removed from the state roadways. Cal Trans deposit approximately 30
dead animals per month, a small fraction of the 1400 dead animals
from all other sources. The present cost of the department's dead
animal disposal is $900 per month for D & D Disposal. This does not
include electricity or staff time.
