LONG TERM OBJECTIVES
Relocate and construct a new or expanded animal shelter to house animals longer and therefore provide more
opportunities for adoption and animals being returned to their owners. A new location that is in a high visiblity area will
help bring Animal Services into the public eye and will also better serve the needs of our animals and our community.

Implement a Trap Neuter Release program for feral cats once we get a bigger facility.

Add a veterinarian to our staff or contracted vet to treat sick and injured animals, this will lower budget costs.
