STATEMENT OF ISSUE: On Monday, February 27, 2023 the Board of County
Commissioners reviewed 48 ARPA grant proposals received from a variety of sources. These
48 proposals were submitted as a result of a BOCC "Last Call" for proposals as it sought to
distribute $834,718 in remaining ARPA funds ($1.692 million in 2023 ARPA funds have yet to
be received). The Board selected 17 projects for funding.
Each Commissioner scored each of the 48 projects individually. Their scores were consolidated
in a spreadsheet and the projects were ranked using these consolidated scores. The Board
discussed each project for the benefit of the public. The Commissioners then made funding
allocations until all but $718 of the funds were allocated and directed the County Administrator
to prepare the appropriate grant agreements.
ANALYSIS: Humane Society of Jefferson County submitted a request for $68,000 to help
fund the acquisition of a heavy duty truck to tow their state of the art veterinary trailer to rural
and remote areas of the county. The Board allocated $40,000.
A grant agreement funding this project is attached.
FISCAL IMPACT: This request costs $40,000 which will be paid using ARPA funds in Fund

areas that have little access to affordable veterinary care for their pets: and

obtain needed acre and routine vaccinations: and
WHEREAS, the Jefferson County Board of Commissioners wishes to provide funding for this
purchase and directed the County Administrator to bring forth a grant agreement to make said

Dear Commissioners:
The Humane Society of Jefferson County would like to submit this Letter of Interest(LOI) regarding your
recent RFP notification for disbursement of remaining ARPA funding to local nonprofit entities. We
intend tosubmit a proposal requesting $68,,000 in ARPA funds. The monies will be used to purchase a
heavy duty pickup truck that would allow us to tow our state of the art Veterinary surgery trailer to rural
and remote areas of the county.
Jefferson County isa iargediversecountywithmany11owepincomenesidemsinare_esthathave)ittip
access to affordable veterinary care for their pets. They are often faced with transportation difficulties,
making them simply unable uzobtain needed care and routine vaccinations. it Isour intent toprovide
local spay/neuter and vaccination clinic services to these residents several times a year to lower the
numbers of unwanted and unhoused companion animals in these more remote areas of our county.
We have secured two small grants that will allow ustospay/neuter and vaccinate several animals at no
cost whatsoever toextremely low-income residents and are applying for other grants that will raise the
number of free services for more of our low-income residents aswell. Wealso intend to offer very
reasonable vaccine and spay/neuterfees for those who can afford veterinary care, but have no way to
travel to our facility in eastern Jefferson County.
By providing services to the more remote areas ofJefferson C"Oonty, we will be serving the public good
inareas that are often overlooked. VVewill also bereducing the number ofunwanted pets that wind up
inour small shelter, thereby ameliorating overcrowding and the extra stress that unfortunately
accompanies overcrowding.
A brief, preliminary budget for this endeavor would include the following:
for the purchase and licensing of a new (or newer) basic heavy duty pickup truck capable of
towing our7500 lb. surgical trailer, medical supplies, and medical staff.
for vehicle and traiier transportation ifisurance, gasoline and associcated vehicle expel NJ.-S.
towards the salaries and expenses needed to staff and transport the surgical tra)ler—
vete^nanan'Veterinary Tech, and Assistant. This would include occasional overnight accommodations
needed in the furthermost regions of the county (Queets for example).
Please reflect onthe benefits toour community macould provide, VVeappreciation your consideration

Dear Commissioners:
R.!=�.. �EAVED
JEFFERSON �����0N����COMMISc,10NERS
The Humane Society of Jefferson County would like to submit this proposal in response to your recent
0Fpfor disbursement ofremaining ARPAfunding tolocal nonprofit entities. Ifselected, the requested
monies will be used to purchase a heavy-duty pickup truck and related expenses (see attached budget).
|n2O21, the Humane Society purchased enew, custom built Veterinary surgical trailer that has allowed
us to per -form hundreds of dog and cat spays or neuters for the companion animals of many Jefferson
County residents atvery low costs. VVehave offered public spay and neuter clinics, aswell aspublic
vaccine clinics to many families that would have otherwise been unable to afford to the medical needs
of their companion animals. While the Covid pandemic affected our abilities tnhold shelter clinics as
often as we would have liked, we are now fully re -open and will be scheduling many onsite low-cost
clinics inthe upcoming months.
Since the purchase of the surgery trailer, we have provided these services exclusively atour shelter
location inPort Townsend, and weanticipate providing at/east2spayand neuter public clinics (plus a
vaccine clinic) monthly atour shelter location. However, the acquisition ofaheavy-duty truck would
enable us to expand our surgery service area to a greater number of Jefferson County residents by
providing a means to tow our fully -equipped surgery trailer to rural and remote areas of the county that
have been long undecsemed. |tisour intent toprovide spay/neuter services and vaccinations to
Jefferson County residents >natleast two undersemedareas approximately 6times (Odays total) during
2023.
Jefferson County is a large, diverse county with many lower -income residents in remote areas such as
Queets and the HOH Native tribe, as well as rural areas such as Quilcene. Residents of these areas are
often faced with transportation difficulties, making ithard toobtain needed care and routine
vaccinations for their companion animals. With a means to tow our surgery trailer, it|sour intent to
provide on -site spay/neuter and vaccination clinic services to these communities several times a year in
aneffort tolower the numbers ofunsterilized and unwanted companion animals inmore remote
regions of our county.
With the acquisition of ARPA funds, we would most like to provide our services to residents of Queets
and the surrounding area ofJefferson County. Queets,which isnear toboth the wohand Quinaulttribal
populations, has per -Capita income levels that are among the lowest mthe State ofWashington. Oweet
is ranked 626 th in per -Capita income, which places it in the lowest 2 percent of the State.
Many of the local tribal families reside in or near Queets, as over 95% of Queets' residents identified as
Native American >narecent Census, With the nearest Veterinary clinics inPort Angeles (96miles) or
Aberdeen (88mUes)'and the prohibitive cost ofaccessing private veterinary care, it makes sense for the
Humane Society of Jefferson County to take our surgical trailer and low-cost clinics to Queets.
The average cost of a spay or neuter at a private veterinary clinic often exceeds $600, and clinics are
population lives below the federal poverty line. Vveintend todomuch better for our fellow Jefferson
County residents. Our mission is to provide affordable services to Jefferson County residents. We
believe this includes those who reside in far -Western Jefferson County towns such as Queets.
Qulicene, while closer to our facility and other veterinary providers, is a rural area with many senior
residents-- making transportation to veterinary clinics often difficult for many. Ou|icenealso has a
significant population living below the poverty line, thus making affordability an additional, equally
important factor for Quilcene residents when deciding to seek out Veterinary care for their companion
animals. The Humane Society ofJefferson County having the means tooffer spay and neuter clinics in
Quilcene will help remove barriers to Quilcene locals who otherwise might be unable to access ser-vices
requiring traveling and/or prohibitive expense.
|fawarded the ARPA funds that we are requesting, we are offering to provide our spay/neuter and
vaccine services to residents in Queets and Qui|cene (and eventually other locations) six times a year for
thenext3years.VVebeUeve'takingourshovvontheroad~sotospeak'wiUresult)naggnificant
reduction in unwanted, unvaccinated and discarded companion animals in Jefferson County, as well as
increasing the numbers of healthy animals in more Jefferson County locations.
We have secured two small grants that will allow us to spay/neuter and vaccinate several animals at no
cost whatsoever to extremely low-income residents, and we are applying for additional grants that will
increase the number of low-cost services that we are able to provide to low-income residents in outlying
Jefferson County locations. Once established, we hope to continue these vital services for the next
several years, ifnot indefinitely.
By providing spay/neuter services and vaccines to the more remote areas of Jefferson County, we will be
serving the public good /nareas that are often overlooked. VVewill also bereducing the number of
unwanted pets that wind up in our small shelter, thereby ameliorating overcrowding and the extra
stress for animals that unfortunately accompanies it.

This is just a general idea of what you are looking at for different weight ratings. I go more in depth
about a LL of these things and what they mean. Just know that the higher number of the vehicle
name, the more fifth wheel weight it can haul.
What Kind of Truck Do You Need,).
, Towing a fifth wheel is no simple feat. You wiLL need a Large truck to pull these things. GeneraLIIAI
fifth wheels weigh about 2,000 Lbs. So what does that mean in terms of trucks?
