EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The County provides Animal Shelter services for the unincorporated areas as well as the City of Napa, the City of American Canyon, and the Town of Yountville. The Animal Shelter houses and cares for stray and unwanted domestic animals. All entities participate in the cost, and costs are shared by a percentage of the participants' population. As the animal population increases and the consumer price index remains high, additional appropriations are required to provide adequate services.
