The Commission reviewed and discussed shelter statistics, noting static intake levels with shifts in species composition and an overall decrease in field calls. The board approved a mutual aid agreement with the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) to facilitate emergency response, including potential resource sharing and grant support during crises. Additionally, the Commission approved a revised service agreement with the Nisqually Indian Tribe, which reduces the annual contract amount and limits the scope of services strictly to police-initiated requests.
