This agenda item renews contracts between Guilford County and cities/towns to provide animal control and animal shelter services within the town limits of Greensboro, Jamestown, Oak Ridge, Pleasant Garden, Sedalia, Stokesdale, Summerfield, and Whitsett.

The High Point agreement is in discussion and will come before to the board at a later date.
The City of Greensboro is charged 50% of actual animal control expenses and towns pay a fixed rate of $3.44 per resident. The county anticipates receiving revenue totaling $1,080,814.
The details of the revenue up to an estimated amount are as follows:
Greensboro: $956,458
Jamestown: $13,098
Oak Ridge: $29,002
Pleasant Garden: $17,477
Sedalia: $2,355
Stokesdale: $21,802
Summerfield: $38,577
Whitsett: $2,045
These Interlocal Agreements shall continue for three (3) years for Greensboro, Jamestown, Oak Ridge, Pleasant Garden, Sedalia, Stokesdale, Summerfield, and Whitsett from July 1, 2026 to June 30, 2029. All agreements are subject to final approval and any non-material revisions made by the County Attorney and the County Manager.
