Pratt Area Humane Society asks Pratt County for $1,250 monthly support
Summary
During public comment, the Pratt Area Humane Society treasurer asked commissioners to continue $1,250 monthly funding, saying steady support enabled shelter operations and praised the new director.
Lisa Hopkin, who introduced herself as treasurer for the Pratt Area Humane Society, told the Pratt County Board of Commissioners the shelter is operating effectively and asked the county to continue a monthly contribution of $1,250.
“We respectfully ask for the continued monthly support of 1,250 a month,” Hopkin said, noting the shelter is currently "pretty full" and recently welcomed a new director, Maria Rios. Commissioners asked whether a formal written request should be submitted for the budget file and staff confirmed the shelter could provide a written request for consideration during budget deliberations.
Why it matters: The requested monthly allotment is a recurring appropriation item the commission can include in the county budget. Shelter leaders framed the request as sustaining core services for Pratt County residents and animals.
