Raytown announces purchase and renovation of first city animal shelter
Summary
City Administrator Diane Eggers told the board that the city purchased the former Midwest Bridal Rescue building at 10312 East 60 Third to create Raytown’s first animal shelter; staff said renovations are planned.
City Administrator Diane Eggers announced Sept. 2 that, with the board’s approval, Raytown has purchased and will renovate its first municipal animal shelter at 10312 East 60 Third (the former Midwest Bridal Rescue building).
Eggers said the board’s vision and approval made the acquisition possible and praised staff and the board for prioritizing the project. She described the move as opening a facility at a time when other communities are reducing services, and said the shelter will provide a local resource for animal care and services.
Aldermen asked for the address and staff confirmed the location. Eggers did not provide a construction schedule or budget in the meeting record; staff will return with details on renovation timing and costs.
