A Tense Meeting Last Night In Burien About King County, Washington Animal Shelters
The comments were hot and heavy from many people at last night’s town hall meeting in Burien between the Metropolitan King County Council and King County residents regarding the conditions at King County Animal Shelters. Volunteers at the shelters came out to support shelter workers who work in less than desirable conditions and others came out to demand changes to the system and the facilities. The Seattle Times reported on last night’s contentious meeting. It appears last night’s meeting was an opportunity for public input, without much resolution. KOMO Radio also had the story today.
However, The Seattle Post-Intelligencer had a story that mirrored much of the information I’d received from Al Dams of King County Animal Control. If you read the comments in the Soundoff section after the article in the Seattle PI, Mud Baby’s comments about the situation identify all the important points.
I posted an article a few days ago with comments from the email I’d received from Al Dams in response to my earlier articles on the dire straits of the animal shelters. Al Dams outlined a three pronged plan for improving the shelters.
Regardless of what’s happened in the past, we need to move forward in this county to insure animals are protected, well cared for, and adopted into good homes.
