CITY 14ANAGER BLOM ADVISED THAT THE CITY HAD BEEN FURNISHING POUND SERVICE to the City of San Carlos for some years.for $25.00 a month. The city does not patrol San Carlos but does accept calls from their police department and residents. The work for one man is now too much for him to handle and it would not be to the city's advantage to hire another one to take care of the additional work. He recommended that the City of San Carlos be notified that pound service cannot be furnished after July 1, 1947. Councilman Werder moved, seconded by Councilman Swift, that the City Managers recommendation be accepted. Under the question, Councilman Britschgi asked if any animals from the Pound were sold for vivisection purposes. City Manager Blom stated that there was no way of proving they were, however, he --did not believe that this was being done because of the expense in getting a dog from the pound. Motion passed unanimously. COMPUTATION OF BIDS ON THE VALOTA ROAD SEWERS WERE RECEIVED.

Under the question, Councilman Granger asked if the inspector's salary was included in the contract.
