LATEST BOS RECAP -Key Points from the Special Session Meeting held on January 22, 2025

After Wednesday's meeting, the Board of Supervisors headed to the Pinal County Animal Care and Control Center at Eleven Mile Corner to cut the ribbon on a

$7-million renovation and extension of the facility.

The existing 4,200 sq. ft. Administration Building has undergone renovation, while an additional 6,000 sq. ft. has been added. The new addition contains a large open lobby, with bright and spacious visitor waiting areas, adoption and admission sections, a cat display area, dog meet-and-greet rooms, and a complete animal services clinic.

Behind the scenes, much-needed infrastructure improvements have been made to sewer drains and septic systems, while all kennel doors have been replaced.

Outdoor upgrades include new visitor parking, secured employee parking, a dog-walking path around the Complex, secure outdoor dog play areas with covered canopies, and a CCTV Security System.

As well as serving unincorporated Pinal County, Animal Care & Control also services most Pinal County cities and towns through Intergovernmental Agreements (IGAs). The facility has been operating significantly overcapacity for a number of years.

This month, PCACC is offering waived adoption fees for animals 7 years and older, $25 adoptions for animals 6 months and older, and $50 adoptions for animals under 6 months.

The shelter is located at 1150 S Eleven Mile Corner Rd, Casa Grande, AZ 85194.
