This issue is of particular interest to the council since this 
			year's contract rate was considerably higher than in the past. 
			Community contract fees were adjusted to reflect percentage of use 
			and costs at the facility.
			Busby said he also cannot understand the manner that the county 
			budgets for the facility. The community contract fees were not 
			clearly defined in the animal control budget. 
			He said that he spoke with Logan County Board Chairman Dick Logan 
			and told him, "Don't count the city's $35,000 in the budget for next 
			year."  
			"I hope that's all right with you I told him that," he said to 
			the council.  
			After the meeting Busby said that he did not have a plan as to 
			how the city would handle the animal problem without the contract. 
			But they have some time to sort that out. Their contract is through 
			May 1, 2008.
