Animal Shelter Expansion

Work is progressing on a 1,350 square-foot expansion of the Animal Shelter at 110 W.L. Walden Drive. The project will provide a new animal intake area with a large room for cats and new kennels for dogs. The expansion will allow for a smoother intake process and a better quarantine area for new animals at the shelter.  Watch the construction progress and look at photos in our City Facilities blog.
