Goal To investigate and resolve animal-related complaints and enforce animal control laws. To develop comprehensive educational programs and spay/neuter programs aimed at reducing the number of animal-related problems in our community. Program Description The HIHS is responsible for the Animal Control contract,which involves enforcing Hawaii County Code Chapter 4 Animal Control related laws and State of Hawaii Laws (Hawaii Revised Statutes 142). These laws currently include ordinances related to the following: • Vicious Dogs • Stray Animals/Impoundment • Animal Licensing • Cruelty and Neglect Investigations HIHS Officers are badged through training provided by HIHS and County agencies. The Animal Control Officers (ACOs) then respond and resolve animal control situations by educating the public about responsible pet ownership and appropriate animal control laws and penalties as well as issuing complaint and comply notices, citations, and vicious dog designations. HIHS Officers are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to respond to animal related emergencies. HIHS must accept all animals, regardless of condition, into its three shelters in Kona, Keaau, and Waimea. We are responsible for sheltering and caring for all animals and providing opportunity for reunification with owners. Other services related to the contract include dog licensing, administration of the Spay/Neuter Community Assistance Program, and legislative support of improved animal-related laws. In addition,HIHS provides adoption services, low-cost microchipping, education for adults and children, foster-care programs, volunteer opportunities, cat registrations, and basic and preventative medical care for shelter animals. HIHS community programs focus on creating better relationships between people and animals, and educating the public on the importance of spaying and neutering and humane treatment of animals. Program Objectives 1. 90% of vicious dog calls will be responded to within 2 hours. 2. 90%of loose animal posing a public safety hazard calls will be responded to within 2 hours. 3. 90% of injured animal related calls will be responded to within 2 hours. 4. 90% of calls for animal control assistance by the police will be responded to within 3 hours. 5. 90% of animal cruelty and neglect cases will be responded to in 24 hours and resolved in 14 working days. 6. 90%of license, loose dog and any non-cruelty/neglect cases will be responded to in 48 hours and resolved in 5 working days. 7. 84 Sweeps of problem communities per year. Program Highlights • HIHS has taken the initiative to regularly patrol previously problem areas. We are working closely with Community Policing in all districts to educate and resolve potential problems before they escalate. • We continue to work on disaster preparedness and stand ready to assist the Red Cross in pet management at Shelters in the event of an emergency. We are also partnering with the Hawaii County Civil Defense to be prepared in case of an emergency. • We continue to introduce new spay/neuter programs that have allowed us to increase the numbers of surgeries that we can perform and the number of free or low-cost surgeries provided to the community, at HIHS expense. Acting as the administrator for the County Spay/Neuter Assistance Program we provided over 1600 free spay/neuter vouchers to the community last fiscal year. This program is on track to provide the same amount or more this fiscal year. This program is a win-win for our Island and we are encouraged that this program has continued. The following are highlights of what we are working towards in the 2015 fiscal year. We plan on continuing the education and training of our Animal Control Officers, as well as employees in other departments. Areas of concentration this year will be Customer Service, Disaster Preparedness, Resolving Problems and Animal Law Enforcement. We will continue to increase efficiency in scheduling of man hours, improved systems, cost-cutting, educating the community in the importance of spaying and neutering, and education of the next generation with our Humane Education Program. We will continue to build a better relationship with the Police Department, County Council and the Administration, as well as other State and Federal Agencies. We will continue to increase outreach and education opportunities to the public on responsible pet ownership and Animal Related Laws. HIHS will increase programs to the under-served in our community. These programs include: discounted or free spays and neuters and access to donated pet food, when available.
