It will be necessary to increase our required funding support for
aniunal damage control cooperative agreements (State trapper
effective January 1, 1995. The present amount of $1250 per month
that you now provide will increase to $1400 per month for the
services of a full time Animal Damage Control Specialist (ADCs).
Again, this increase does not take effect until January 1, 1995.
We are providing this information to you for future budgeting
purposes.
Our present assessment of $1250 will have been in effect for three
years and four months by the time of the increase. The projected
Cooperative Trapping Fund balance indicates that we must implement
this increase or reduce personnel. How long this increase will
last will .depend on the future amount of state and federal
appropriations provided to the Texas Animal Damage Control Program.
This- increase is not reflective of a proportional salary increase
for the ADCs. It is necessary because our expenses have exceeded
our revenue for some time now, depleting our reserves. This is due
to increases in ADCs salary, mileage, and benefit costs over the
last three years; fewer state and federal appropriations available
to support ADCS positions; and increases in salary, hours worked,
and benefits for secretarial support at some of our District
Offices. The new assessment will provide approximately 50$ of the
cost of an ADCs. During your consideration~af-this change, keep in
mind that your county may also be receiving substantial aerial
hunting services and/or the services of other program personnel, at
no extra cost.
Please contact your respective District Supervisor or this office
if you have any questions concerning future budgets or the program
in general. Thank you for your cooperation.
Sincerely,
1
