proposal to construct a shelter in Mooresville, Animal Control Supervisor Tatham said
funding from the county would not be needed until FY 07-08. He said the county's
costs at that time would be $148,586. Tatham said the group would probably start the
construction in 24 months. (A handout was distributed describing the new facility,
along with a summary of daily procedures, and a proposed FY 07-08 budget.)
