vacating her position. The position was now open so today they were asking for a

Henrietta Soland (Yes)
C.B. informed the Board that at their next meeting they would need to nominate and

ITEM TWO: Quarterly Financial Report
Patty Holland, Chief Financial Officer began by explaining how the Animal Control
Quarterly Report (Pages 2-1 & 2-2) included data from the fourth quarter of fiscal year
2020 (July 2019 to June 2020). She explained how the personnel line item was
budgeted for about $273,000.00 and they used $250,000.00. The reason for that
differentiation was for changes in overtime and benefit costs, which saved the City about
$23,000.00. Board Member Holland went on to state that the operating budget was
almost fully expended as expected whereas there was only about $4,700.00 that was not
utilized. So for the fiscal year 2020 Animal Control was budgeted about $662,000.00
where they spent $634,504.00 leaving some funds unspent.
Madam Chair Rowberry asked the Board Members if they had any questions. There
were none.
Madam Chair Rowberry stated that the item was closed.

ITEM THREE: RFP award for Animal Shelter Services and Veterinarian Services
Clyde (C.B.) Strain, Planning & Development Director explained how they went out to
Request for Proposals (RFP) for the animal shelter and veterinarian services because
they were due to be renewed. For the animal shelter services they had one proposal
submitted by the McKinley County Humane Society. C.B. explained how there was an
Evaluation Committee who reviewed the RFP and noticed that the initial proposal cost
was significantly higher than previous years. So the Purchasing Director went back and
was able to negotiate the price with the Humane Society after questioning their
equipment, software, and donation amounts. The Humane Society was able to reduce
the amount whereas it stayed the same amount as the previous year of $175,000.00. For
the veterinarian services they had one proposal submitted by Clinton J. Balok. C.B.
stated that the Evaluation Committee had no areas of concern with his bid so the
contract was awarded to Clinton J. Balok for $96,000.00. Those executed professional
service agreements were included in the Board’s agenda packets for their review. C.B.
stated that Animal Controls’ budget had sufficient funding to cover these services
because they budget for them annually.
Madam Chair Rowberry asked the Board Members if they had any questions. There
were none.
Madam Chair Rowberry asked the Madam Secretary if there was anyone who called in
wishing to speak to Item Three. There were none.
ITEM FOUR: Replacement of one Animal Protection Officer with an Administrative
Assistant
Cosy Balok, Animal Protection Supervisor informed the Board that they replaced one (1)
Animal Protection Officer with an Administrative Assistant. The Animal Control
Department previously consisted of four (4) officers and one (1) supervisor. Cosy
explained how after one of their officers resigned she realized it would be more
beneficial to fill an administrative position instead of an officer position. Their
department gets busy with calls and officers don’t have time for administrative duties
because they are mainly out in the field responding to calls across McKinley County and
in Gallup. Cosy felt it was important to have a staff member stationed at the shelter at all
times and complete a lot of the administrative paper work. The request was approved by
the Human Resources Department and the City Manager whereas the Animal Control
Department will now have three (3) officers, one (1) administrative assistant, and one
(1) supervisor. Cosy informed the Board that they were in the process of hiring a
candidate.
Madam Chair Rowberry asked the Board Members if they had any questions.
Board Member Palomo asked Cosy if this change would free-up the officers much better
than when they had four and now having three officers. Cosy responded yes; she thinks
Gallup-McKinley County Animal Control Authority Meeting
November 3rd, 2020 Minutes
Page 3 of 4
it will make a big difference because there’s a great deal of paperwork that goes on
during the day and this will free-up officers to focus on calls.
Madam Chair Rowberry asked the Madam Secretary if there was anyone who called in
wishing to speak to Item Four. There were none.
Open Floor:
Madam Chair Rowberry asked the Madam Secretary if there was anyone who called in
wishing to comment on a non-agenda item. There were none.
Madam Chair Rowberry asked if there was anyone in attendance that would like to
comment on a non-agenda item. There were none.
Motion was made by Board Member Palomo to adjourn the meeting. Seconded by Board
Member Holland. Motion Carried.
Upon roll call, the following votes were:
Dr. Oscar A. Palomo, MD (Yes)
Patty Holland (Yes)
Ruth Gonzales Baca (Yes)
Henrietta Soland (Yes)
Authority Board meeting adjourned at 1:14 p.m.

MEMORANDUM
Date: January 8, 2021
To: Gallup-McKinley County Animal Control Authority Board
From: Cosy Balok, Animal Protection Supervisor
Subject: Animal Control Statistics for 2020
Discussion:
Animal Control has provided a variety of statistics from January to December 2020 for the GMCAC
Authority Board to review.
Every month data is compiled to obtain an accurate number of incoming animals. Those numbers are
then broken down into how many were neutered or spayed and eventually adopted, transferred,
reclaimed, euthanized, etc. Also there is a count of how animals are received (picked up by officers and
dropped off) by City, County and Reservation clients.
Notice how 2020 had a total of 3,509 incoming animals whereas 2019 had 5,004 which was a decrease
of 1,495 incoming animals. This large decrease was due to COVID-19 restrictions whereas the shelter
was forced to close and receive animals on an appointment only basis. The shelter has not been fully
open to the public since March 2020. To give a visual of where we’re receiving a majority of the animals
from and what type of animals, you can refer to the attached graphs.

BACKGROUND
In 2019 the City of Gallup commissioned Hutt-Zollars to conduct site assessments on two sites
and produce a programming and conceptual design report for the future City of Gallup
Regional Animal Shelter.
The current shelter is located on Balok St. off of Highway 491. It shares the facility in
conjunction with the Gallup-McKinley County Humane Society and is directly north of the local
animal medical center.
Our team met several times with the Animal Shelter and City staff which provided valuable
information on their operations and space needs.
Currently, the existing facility is antiquated and not adequately sized for the current volume of
intake animals. There is no separation between ‘sick’ and ‘well’ animals, the current HVAC
system is inadequate for the basis of design for animal shelter HVAC requirements and a
critical item pointed out by staff, there is a severe lack of storage space in the existing facility.
