Shelia Patton stated that phase 1 of the renovation project was completed on 3/3/25, and phase 2 has started. The renovation was to address some of our immediate needs. Phase 1 was about office space, bathrooms, a medical room, a quarantine room, an intake room, floors, and a hallway. Phase 2 will be about making the cat rooms more inviting, adding two isolation rooms and a TNR area. We are also trying to get cat condos for the cat rooms. We are hoping to have Phase 2 completed by 4/1/25. Joe Webb stated that he commends the staff for the work that they have done throughout the renovation. He also asked if we could have an open house after the renovation has been completed. Minutes March 12, 2025 Animal Shelter Advisory Board Page 2 5] 0511412025Item 1. Shelia Patton stated that, yes, we could plan a special event on the first Saturday after the renovation. She also wants the public to understand that most of the work done with the renovation is in areas that the public doesn't have access to, such as the intake room, medical room, quarantine room, and office spaces. Joe Webb then asked if we could do a video of the areas. Shelia Patton said that we could, and she liked that idea. Amber Porter then stated that she thinks this is important because the public pointed out the quarantine room and areas for sick animals as areas that needed improvement. She also said that maybe the video could be played during a shot clinic and put on our social media. Shelia Patton said that, yes, we could consider doing that. She would also like to thank everyone for working with us during the renovations. Susan Cranford asked if the change order was for the fire and safety plan. Shelia Patton stated that it wasn't. The change order was for a change in work surface material and electrical work for the outside of the quarantine room. ADJOURNMENT Motion was made by Susan Cranford and seconded by Shelia Patton to adjourn the meeting. With no further business before the board, the board's consensus was to adjourn at 6:42 p.m. ATTEST: Shelia Patton, ASAB member Minutes March 12, 2025 Animal Shelter Advisory Board Page 3 ASAB Chair 6] 0511412025 Item 2.
