2 <br /> <br />favor. Groups discussed are the Housing Department, the Interfaith Council, veterinarians, rescues, among <br />others. <br /> <br />(C) Greensboro HOPE meeting <br />• Warren and Mike went to Greensboro to meet with HOPE, a group in the process of starting a Guilford <br />County Animal Services Advisory Board equivalent. They invited us to learn about how our board works, but <br />their budget is much smaller than Orange County’s and they have three times the number of animals in the <br />course of a year. <br /> <br />(D) Animal Services Update <br />• Budget: a recommended budget was included in the meeting package, and it is discussed. <br />• Upcoming Events: microchip and rabies clinic on June 11; Open House on June 4; cat adoption special during <br />the summer. <br />• Bob gives details on the snake seizure in the county. <br /> <br />(E) Nomination for At-Large Position <br />Though all candidates seem very well qualified, the board chose to recommend Ed Tiryakian, in keeping with <br />our charge to increase the board’s diversity. Mike requested that Hilary Cooper be kept in consideration for <br />future openings. <br /> <br /> <br />Meeting adjourned at: 8:36 PM <br />Name of Minute Taker: Caroline Green
