The Irvine City Council in Southern California on Aug. 8 unanimously approved $25 million for the renovation of the Irvine Animal Care Shelter, which will include new amenities and larger kennels for the shelter that sees over 600 animals each week.
The shelter’s administrative building will be enlarged by nearly 10,000 square feet for a new clinic, a new entry with a lobby and retail space, employee offices, a small kitchen, restrooms, and multipurpose rooms, which could be used for dog training, according to city staff.
