5. The impound fee and the daily boarding fee shall be waived for an unspayed or non-neutered animal if the owner or custodian executes a sworn statement that the animal will be spayed upon its release and posts a cash deposit with the animal control officer in an amount equal to the current average charge for spaying the impounded animal. If the owner or custodian of the animal delivers to the animal control officer, within one month following release of the animal from impound, a certificate of a licensed veterinarian stating that the animal has been spayed and setting forth the date of spaying or neutering, the cash deposit shall be released to the owner or custodian.
