Findings 11 findings
F1
The 2015-2016 Grand Jury found the Butte County Superintendent of Schools did not meet the required response format outlined in the Discussion section of this report.
F2
There were several responses to 2014-2015 recommendations that fell into the "will be done" category (See Attachment A), but no timeline for progress or completion was set forth.
F3
This is an exceptionally well-managed shelter. The animals have clean and spacious kennels. There is adequate separation of the species, as recommended by the GSCAS (2010), and there is proper quarantine space for sick animals. The facility is well-supplied, and has an active fundraising program to help support humane services for animals it shelters. GRIDLEY/BIGGS
F4
This shelter’s dog run is small compared to others and may not provide adequate exercise or play time for larger dogs, or small groups of dogs who might socialize well. PARADISE
F5
The Paradise facility is small and in need of renovation and expansion.
F6
There needs to be greater separation of cats and dogs, especially for the well-being of cats.
F7
Sick animals need to be quarantined more effectively from healthy animals.
F8
The Paradise shelter hours during which it is open to the public for adoption and other services are inadequate compared to other shelter facilities.
F9
NRWS in Paradise is to be commended for its very informative and user-friendly website which contains all the information the public needs to use its facility. It also advertises widely on TV to make its presence and services known.
F10
Resolving the issue regarding the septage ponds at the Neal Road landfill needs the involvement of the community and the Board of Supervisors. This matter remains a critical issue and a timely resolution is necessary before Butte County residents are adversely affected with higher costs for hauling to another location.
F11
At present all three facilities have limited days and hours of operation available to the public to turn in HHW.
