10/29/2026 - Hendricks Co. Animal Shelter Advisory Board Meeting

The Hendricks County Animal Shelter Advisory Board meeting on October 29, 2026, had no quorum, so members could discuss business but not vote; approval of the September minutes was deferred. The shelter director reported that renovations were about 95% complete: structural, HVAC, and electrical work was finished, two washer-and-dryer sets had been installed, and paint touch-ups, possible additional flooring, and final cleaning remained as part of the project. No contract award, vendor selection, or dollar amount was identified.

The board also discussed a shelter ordinance update, which towns had asked to defer until November; the shelter and animal-control portions must both be approved. The director reported shelter staffing changes and animal intake, adoption, and capacity figures, and described plans for a December 5 open house and microchip clinic. No procurement-related votes or spending actions were taken.
