Dream of Vance Animal Shelter Coming True
/by John C. RoseIf the weather cooperates, Vance County Animal Control staff as well as animals will begin to occupy the New Vance County Animal Shelter in a couple of weeks.
In an informal conversation, Chief Animal Control Officer Frankie Nobles indicated to Susan Rose of WIZS News that the building would be in use in a couple of weeks.

The ground breaking was on Thursday, January 21, 2016 at the new Brodie Road location. You can read that entire article as it was previously posted on wizs.com – click here.
