. MEMORANDUM To: Honorable Mayor Baudek and Board of Trustees From: Randy Repola ~-- I)ate: December 7,2000 Subject: "Domestic animal waste removal" ordinance Background: At a recent Community Meeting, it was pointed out that the Municipal Code addresses the responsibilities of dog owners for removing feces, but does not address the issue for other domestic pets such as cats. It makes sense that a similar requirement for all domestic pets would be reasonable and appropriate. The purpose of such an ordinance is to hold pet owners responsible for the removal of waste left behind by their pets. Therefore, an amendment to Title 7 ofthe Municipal Code is proposed. The ordinance will hold all owners of domestic pets responsible for the removal of feces deposited by their pet(s) on any property, public or private. Mr. White has drafted a proposed ordinance and is included for your consideration. Budget/Cost: No cost. Recommendation: Staff requests consideration ofthe proposed "Domestic animal waste removal ordinance," Section 7.06.040, as submitted.

4 43:y Qwest«- QWEST EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS NETWORK (EPN) Q&A 1. What is Qwest EPN? Qwest EPN is an integrated solution that identifies and notifies a designated population within minutes of an impending emergency or "Event." 2. How does Qwest EPN work? Qwest EPN combines the functionality of an EPN telephone number/address/XY- coordinate database and outbound calling. EPN utilizes the Qwest EPN database to generate telephone number extracts for a specific geographic area, which define an emergency event. These telephone numbers are then extracted, and outbound calling begins with the dialing of the telephone numbers extracted from the Event boundaries, providing a specific voice message or notification generated by Customers such as Public Safety Agencies or Offices of Emergency Management. 3. How is an event initiated? Customers will initiate EPN Events to Qwest via telephone; passwords and user IDs will be required to initiate Events. Qwest will not launch EPN Events without the proper password and user ID provided at the time of Event initiation. 4. How does Qwest EPN know what areas need to be called? Customer will provide Qwest with Event boundaries for each pre-planned Event. EPN also allows customers to dynamically communicate a point (specific address or intersection) and a specified radius (in feet or miles) around the point to define the Event boundary. For example, when a customer telephones Qwest to initiate an event, the customer will be able to specify an address (e.g., 123 Main Rd., Denver, CO) and a radius (1 Mile), and Qwest EPN will extract all telephone numbers within this boundary for notification. 5. How is the voice message created? Customers will create pre-planned, pre-recorded or real-time voice messages. Qwest will provide a toll free number for recording and maintaining Event specific voice messages. Appropriate security (a customer-defined PIN) will control access to the voice messaging system. 6. How fast can the message be delivered? Qwest EPN will initiate a notification message by extracting an event file or multiple files. The telephone number file and the appropriate voice message will be merged and notification will commence at a rate that is as fast as reasonably possible, with a maximum capacity of 2,000 calls per minute.
7. How do we know if the outbound calling was successful'? Qwest provides both summary and detail reports. Summary reports are generated and sent to the customer's command center at 30-minute intervals. If the event does not exceed 30 minutes the summary report will be provided within 60 minutes after the close of the event. Shortly after the event completion, Qwest will also provide a detailed telephone number report including date and time of each call, number of call attempts, call outcome and more. 8. What are the advantages of Qwest EPN over other outbound calling systems? Qwest has proven experience delivering critical services to support public safety. This means customers don't have to worry about database and network management, allowing emergency agencies to focus their energies, expertise and resources on prevention and mitigation of emergency events. • Qwest EPN provides a simple and fully integrated telephone emergency warning service. • Qwest EPN can deliver notification to more people, more quickly. • Qwest databases ensure that the greatest number of telephone numbers are available and up-to-date wherever an event strikes. • There is no software to purchase and maintain and no need to rely on outdated telephone number databases. The speed of delivery is not limited to the number of outbound telephone lines at the command center. • EPN provides 24x7 support even if a command center is mobile.

Some cf your greatest challenges, like floods, fires, tornadoes, hurricanes, earthquaKes, chemical spills, train derailments, industrial mishaps - whatever the emergency - may strike with Ii:tle or no warning.

Quest Sciution Owest<8 Emergency Preparedness Network (EPN) is a rapid and broad reaching telephone emergency not fication service. EPN is the latest advancement by Qwest in a potentially life-saving Public Safety tool.

A choice can also be made to have Qwest 6 7,4 -Etr''A.7.™2.F'~~ EPN leave a message where an answering rrachine picks up. The targeted message is sent to only those you feel need to be alerted.
