AMW Services Building opens with a vet clinic, field offices and 16 kennels; Texas Tech to help with surgeries
The board heard on March 31, 2021 that the new building would be called the AMW Services Building, housing animal health services (vet office and surgical suite), field operations and a training room; the department was requesting three animal care worker positions for its 16 additional kennels, and the Texas Tech veterinary school would assist with spays and neuters. Staff reported adoptions down 75%, intake down 29% and euthanasia down 44% compared with 2020. In April the public health board was told of an open house within two weeks.[1][2]
