DESCRIPTION:
Veterinary Care for Zoo Animals
DISCUSSION:
Recommend re- award to Dr. Baeyens. See
attached memo from David Westbrook.
Dr. Baeyens was low bidder by approximately
33% in 1981. In view of the fact that there
has been some trouble in the past getting
veterinary care for the Zoo I believe that
Mr. Westbrook's request is justified. The
hourly rate will remain the same as last year,
$37.50. Last year the Zoo expended $10,400.
on this contract with this years expenditures
expected to be approximately the same.
