# Wilson County Animal Control Committee - November 3, 2026

The Wilson County Animal Control Committee met on November 3, 2026. Members discussed the new animal-control building, but no schedule or milestones were provided; a presentation is expected once the project is further along. The county said the mayor is interviewing candidates for the department director position. A resident also requested more accessible public information, and members explained that meeting recordings and minutes are available through the county’s website and commission packets.

Procurement and budget-related items included a request to return animal-friendly grant funds to the medical line, citing rising vaccine costs: a tray of 25 vaccines had increased from about $165 to roughly $300–$364, while Revival Animal Health offered them for $190.99. The committee approved placing a 2012 Ford F-150, a 2014 Ford F-150 with a six-compartment dog box, and a truck bed for a 2016 Ford F-250 on GovDeals rather than transferring the 2014 truck to Trousdale County. Members also supported asking the mayor to locate and purchase protective gowns and face shields for staff conducting rabies testing; no price or formal purchasing motion was recorded. The October activity and financial report was accepted, including a September balance of $73,534.25 and a Gretchen Wilson Safe Life Fund balance of $19,139.71.
