Dear City Clerk, City Council Members, and City Manager, Please find attached email correspondence and supporting documents regarding the isolation kennels, which remained disassembled and unused for months despite being approved during the March 15, 2023, meeting for $185,000. These isolation kennels are only now being erected, following significant public outcry through social media, council meetings, and animal commission meetings. To provide context and clarity, I am including the following attachments: 1. March 15, 2023, Agenda – Documents the initial approval of the kennels. Below is a link to the agenda and video of the entire meeting: March 15, 2023 Agenda and Video 2. August 7, 2024, Agenda – Includes updated costs for construction and related details. Below is a link to the agenda and video of the entire meeting: August 7, 2024 Agenda and Video 3. Email correspondence with Public Works (October 2022) – Outlines what was needed and the approximate costs for the project. Preparing the site alone was estimated at $240,000, which I do not believe includes the required building and installation costs, and these remain unclear. 4. Public comment by Councilmember-elect Ortiz (July 24, 2024) – Made during the Animal Control Commission meeting, citing public records to shift blame to the City Council and Department of Public Works for delays, while absolving the Director of Animal Services. I am questioning where Councilmember-elect Ortiz obtained these “public records.” When I requested the same from the City Clerk’s office, I received a response stating no such request for these records exist (Page 7 of the PDF, dated August 28, 2024, 9:38 AM by Staff). CCM Elect Ortiz Public Comment Animal Control Commission meeting 07.24.24 5. Concern over single-source bid purchase – Raises significant questions about transparency and fiscal responsibility. Line 6 of the Justification of Single/Sole Source Request states that the department considered having the kennels built by a contractor but did not know the cost. Nearly two years later, the building is still not completed. Due to the volume of documents, I am unable to provide printed copies for each council member. I kindly request that these attachments be printed, shared, and made available to accompany my public comment today. This situation underscores a troubling lack of leadership and accountability within the Department of Animal Services, as well as issues with interdepartmental coordination. I hope the documentation provided will prompt meaningful action and bring much-needed transparency to this matter. Thank you for your time and attention. Sincerely, Georgia Lykouretzos 1 CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO GOODS PURCHASE AGREEMENT This Goods Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered into this 16th day of March 2023, by and between the City of San Bernardino, a charter city and municipal corporation organized under the laws of the State of California with its principal place of business at Vanir Tower, 290 North D Street, San Bernardino, California 92401, County of San Bernardino, State of California (“City”), and Shor-Line, a CORPORATION, with its principal place of business at 511 Osage Ave, Kansas City, Kansas 66105 (“Supplier”).

Other format and support documents for invoices will be determined by City in advance of the first invoice cycle. C.

Upon determination of the amount of said pro rata compensation, City will promptly pay such amount to Supplier upon delivery by Supplier of the releases of liens and affidavit, pursuant to Section 7.C. Section 17. FORCE MAJEURE A. Supplier shall not be held responsible for failure or delay in shipping nor City for failure or delay in accepting goods described herein if such failure or delay is due to a Force Majeure Event. B.

Please do not provide one sentence answers. If any additional pages are needed to answer all questions, please attached all pages to this document. 1. Why is the acquisition restricted to this good/service/supplier? (Explain why the acquisition cannot be competitively bid). Please enter answer below: Shor-Line and Midmark, merged in 2021, making this the only large-scale manufacturer of kennels in the US. The merged company has almost 100 years of experience in constructing kennels specifically for veterinary hospitals and animal shelters. 2. Describe the uniqueness of the purchase (why was the good/service/supplier chosen?) Please enter the answer below: Shor-Line kennels use materials that are easy to sanitize and are proven to withstand daily wear and tear from large dogs. Shor-Line has a patented drain design making the kennels more sanitary and easier for staff to do daily cleaning and disinfection. The existing shelter has Shor-line kennels that were installed over 30 years ago – although the size of the kennels may not be consistent with current animal welfare industry standards, the kennels themselves are still in good working order and are a testament to the quality workmanship this company provides. 3. What are the consequences of not purchasing the good/service or contracting with the proposed supplier? We would not be able to complete the additional dog kennel building and would not have the kennel space needed to house the number of dogs coming to the shelter. The level of care the department can provide to sick animals would continue to be below current animal welfare standards. 4. What market research was conducted to substantiate the single source, including evaluation of other items considered? a. (Please provide a narrative of your efforts to identify other similar or appropriate goods/services, including a summary of how the department concluded that such alternative are either inappropriate or unavailable. The names, addresses and phone numbers of suppliers contacted and the reasons for not considering then must be included or an explanation of why the survey or effort to identify other goods/services was not performed.) There is no alternative to these kennels. Chain link dog runs are not sufficient to house sick and injured animals. The materials used in the construction of these kennels as well as the design reduces the chance for illnesses to spread amongst the population. The construction of the drains is necessary for the department to ensure proper sanitation and humane housing of the dogs in their care. 5. How was the price offered determined to be fair and reasonable? Explain what the basis was for comparison and include cost analyses as applicable. (I.E. Compared to vendor’s previous or current offer to the city or to another agency/company – or any other method of comparison that will substantiate fair and reasonable pricing in the absence of competition) The price of the kennels is standard throughout the industry. 6. Describe any cost savings realized or costs avoided by acquiring the goods/services from this supplier. In order to have something similar, we would need to have a contractor design and then build the kennels. It is unknown what the cost for this would be, or if the final product would be comparable to the kennels from Shor-Line. Shor-Line is a factory direct manufacturer of these products and have years of experience in this specialty. Shor-Line is a factory direct manufacture and is sole source in the veterinary education, animal control and animal humane organizations for custom Shor-Line products in the United States of America.

McNeely, Interim City Manager; Kris Watson, Director of Animal Services Department:Animal Services Subject:Purchase of Dog Kennels for the Animal Shelter (All Wards) Recommendation It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California, authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute the Goods Purchase Agreement with Shor-Line for the purchase of new dog kennels to be installed at the animal shelter. Background Since 2019, the City has made several improvements to the animal shelter, including constructing play yards for the dogs, upgrading electrical panels throughout the facility, installing a new ventilation system into the cat ward as well as demolishing old buildings and adding two new modular offices to increase the level of service the department can offer to the public. To date, these investments by the City in the animal shelter have been crucial in resolving the most critical needs of the Department. Discussion One of the most critical areas of the shelter needing improvement is the veterinary isolation ward. Animals that are sick are traditionally kept in this area for treatment and to reduce disease transmission to the remainder of the healthy population. The shelter’s current isolation ward is original to the facility and is out of date with current animal welfare standards to prevent illness. In order to reduce disease transmission and properly safeguard the health of the animals entrusted to the shelter, a new veterinary isolation ward needs to be completed on campus. The Department obtained a quote from Shor-Line for new kennels, consistent with current animal welfare standards. The kennels are larger than those in our current isolation ward and will have solid sides and kennel doors to reduce disease transmission between dogs. Shor-Line is the only large-scale manufacturer of dog kennels in the United States, and recently merged with the other manufacturer of kennels, Midmark. The kennels from Shor-Line include a patented drain design, are of Page 2 high quality and made from stainless steel, making them easy to sanitize. There are older Shor-Line kennels at the shelter which were installed over forty years ago and are still in good working condition despite daily disinfection with harsh chemicals. The Department has included a single source justification for the purchase from Shor-Line due to the unique requirements for this purchase. This is a crucial purchase for the Department. If Animal Services is unable to complete the additional dog kennel building, the Department will not have the kennel space needed to house the number of dogs coming into the shelter. Additionally, the level of care the Department can provide to sick animals will continue to be below current animal welfare standards. Once installed, these new kennels will add 17 full size and 17 half size kennels to the isolation ward. An additional six smaller kennels will be added to the receiving area, expanding the space available for smaller dogs arriving overnight to the shelter. The kennels will be bolted to the cement floor, allowing them to be moved to another building or location in the future, if needed. 2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals The request for the purchase of new dog kennels aligns with Strategic Target No. 3: Improved Quality of Life. New kennels consistent with current animal welfare industry standards will increase the quality of care the shelter is able to provide to sick and injured pets. The new kennels will also improve the appearance of the animal shelter campus, leading to an improved quality of life for the pets impounded at the shelter and for members of the public visiting the facility. Fiscal Impact There is no fiscal impact to the General Fund for this purchase. The cost will be $184,860.37, and the Department will be using grant funding from the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians already included in the Animal Services FY 2022/23 Operating Budget for this purchase. Conclusion It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California, authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute the Goods Purchase Agreement with Shor-Line for the purchase of new dog kennels to be installed at the animal shelter.
