The Hays County Commissioners Court recently approved a professional service agreement with Austin Pets Alive! as project coordinator for the new Pet Resource Center that is under development. According to county officials, APA! will aid in the overall creation and development, as well as operate and manage center, including its field services and a proposed veterinary clinic.
The planning phase for this facility is set to begin April 3 and is expected to take a year, during which time the county will seek recommendations for possible locations, as well as drafting a budget, and polices for the operations here in the county.
For its part, Austin Pets Alive! is expected to research land options and guide the county as it searches for an appropriate location for center, one that will provide both accessibility and be centrally located to serve the greatest number of people and pets.
