Glad to see animal shelter moving forward

FOLCAS (Friends of Lincoln County Animals) is relieved that the county’s efforts to secure an appropriate site for the new Lincoln County Animal Shelter have borne fruit at long last.

While a more central location for this essential public service would have been more convenient for many, we recognize that success in any venture requires tailoring one’s desires to the dimensions of the possible. We accept the county’s assurance that this site (in Waldport) was the best available option, and we intend to help the vulnerable animals of our community and the people who care for them get a shelter that meets their needs and the needs of the public without further delay.
