However Kim McKieman said, the board should consider expanding the shelter. Particularly they should consider adding facilities for cats, she said.
Stonewall-Hawthorn District representative Bob Anderson said it is good that the shelter is able to get so many dogs adopted and even better when they can get dogs adopted by people who live outside the county. He said several dogs that came from the shelter have been bothering his cattle.
Shelter representatives asked him for more information. They said adoptive families are supposed to guarantee that the dogs don’t roam loose.
Jamie Aliperti presented the request from Rappahannock Legal Services for $1,000 in county funds. He said RLS had assisted 80 Rappahannock residents in 1993. Most are the working poor, he said, not people on public assistance.
He said he was hearing the question, “If we give you an increase, can you guarantee you won’t ask for an increase next year? I can guarantee that,” he said, to a great deal of laughter.
Each year Rappahannock Legal Services, the Shelter for Abused Families, FORE, public television and sometimes other agencies ask for county funds, and each year funding for these requests is cut from the budget.
Most of the counties served by the three offices of RLS give some support, but for the Culpeper office, which serves Culpeper, Fauquier, Madison, Orange and Rappahannock counties, only Culpeper and Fauquier counties and the town of Culpeper contribute directly. He said that the important thing is not the amount the county contributes but that when RLS seeks funds from other sources they can say that the counties they serve are contributing.
