At <br /> that time, City staff evaluated several options to provide animal care shelter services. It was <br /> determined that contracting with the Orange County Animal Shelter was the most cost effective <br /> means of providing quality service to the City. <br /> On March 24, 2016, Orange County Community Resources notified the City Manager's Office of <br /> the County's decision to move forward with the construction of a new Animal Care Shelter. Given <br /> the conditions of the aging shelter, the County will be expediting the construction of the new <br /> facility with an expected completion date of Fall 2017. The new facility will be constructed over a <br /> 10-acre parcel at the former Marine Corps Air Station Tustin Base for an estimated $35 million. <br /> 25C-1 <br />
