Forsyth County to take over animal shelter on April 1

Back in October, the FHS said it needed $1.85 million (three times what it was previously receiving) to provide its current level of service. The FHS then scaled back its demand to $1.5 million annually. At the Dec. 1 county commissioners meeting a number of individuals were demanding that the commissioners immediately approve a $1.5 million annual budget for the FHS.
Some of the budget debate and confusion was reportedly because the FHS had expanded its level of service, and the Board of Commissioners was not made aware of this.
