Animal Shelter Receives Grant for Emergency Generator
SHELBYVILLE, KY.
Shelby County Judge-Executive Rob Rothenburger announces
the purchase and installation of an emergency generator
for the Shelby County Animal Shelter.
Acting Animal Control
Director and Deputy Judge-Executive Rusty Newton states,
“Our shelter tries to set the precedent for other animal
shelters by providing the necessary resources to
continue to function even during the most adverse
weather condition, i.e. power outages.”
The emergency generator
will enable Shelby County to prepare for, respond to,
and mitigate the adverse effects thrust upon the county
due to the consequence of a manmade or natural disaster.
Funding for the
emergency generator was possible through Area
Development Funds appropriated through the Kentucky
General Assembly to be used for community projects.
This year’s appropriation was in the amount of
$7,728.47, with a total project cost of $11,860.00.
