In January, Councilman Boykins announced plans to spend $50,000 for BARC employees to work overtime doing more "sweeps" in neighborhoods in his District. Click here read more about it.  

Below are the kennel cards of animals picked up during those "sweeps" in February. 

 

Out of 79 dogs and cats picked during the sweeps in February, 27 were killed by BARC.  There are 5 more animals shown with unknown outcomes. It is likely they were killed as well.  

 

That equates to a 34% to 40% Kill Rate for the animals picked up during CM Boykins sweeps.
