DELAWARE STATE SENATE

151st GENERAL ASSEMBLY

SENATE AMENDMENT NO. 1

TO

SENATE BILL NO. 185

AMEND Senate Bill No. 185 by adding the following after line 56:

Section 2. Amend Chapter 30, Title 16 of the Delaware Code by making deletions as shown by strike through and insertions as shown by underline as follows:

§ 3018F. Program Administration.

(c) The cost of the program manager position to administer the Pet Population Control Spay/Neuter Program shall be paid for out of General Funds until this Special Fund of $500,000, at which time the position and support costs shall be paid for out of Appropriated Special Funds.

The cost of administering the Pet Population Control Spay/Neuter Program may be reimbursed from the Fund.

SYNOPSIS

Because SB. 185 will substantially increase the size of the Spay/Neuter Fund, this Amendment removes the limitation of only providing for one position in the Office of Animal Welfare (“OAW”) for the Pet Population Control Spay/Neuter Program (“Program”) and specifically allows for OAW to cover the costs of administering the Program out of the Spay/Neuter Fund as appropriate to properly manage the Program.
