This architect’s drawing shows the plan for the new, larger animal shelter that will be located near 5 Pillar Meats. The proposed shelter would have space for 26 dogs and 16 cats, compared with capacity for 11 dogs and nine cats at the current facility, according to Assistant County Administrator Sarah Puckett. “There are some people in the county that don’t even know where our shelter is at,” Mumma said. “Right now, if you walk into the shelter, you walk into pretty much every room in the shelter once,” he said. The proposed shelter would separate those functions, allowing staff to better manage the animals and provide a more appropriate environment for adoptions and visits.
