Dear Ms. McOniness,
Your Certificate of Liability Insurance and Certificate of Workers' Compensation Insurance
have both expired in Jtme arid July 2009. These documents should be sent to me upon their
renewal. Please provide me with current copies of these documents at your earliest convenience.
The completion of the DL-18 forms, Dog Seizure and Disposition/Redemption/Adoption by your
staff are not acceptable. These forms are sometimes missing important information and arc
illegible. Signatures must have printed name underneath. We have not received euthanization
certificates from you. Please forward all of these certificates that you have.
I don't believe we are receiving all of the adoption documents and fees. In 2006 we received
171, in 2007 -121; 2008-72; 2009 only 8. To date, you have only generated 72 dog licenses
from the shelter in an eight (8) month period. According to our records there are cun'enfly one
hundred fifteen (115) case numbers listed which are unaccounted for.
The new 2008 contract did not remove any of your reporting obligations to the tovn~ The last
monthly report we received from you is March 2008. You are still responsible for pwviding my
office with monthly reports, and maintaining the shelter and performing your duties in
accordance with NYS Agriculture & Markets Law, Article 7 and Town Law, Article 8.
Yours truly,
Southold Town Clerk
Supervisor & Town Board Members
Town Attorney
Town ComPtroller.
