MEMORANDUM <br /> FROM: Dale Teer, Orange County Animal Control Officer P� <br /> TO: Orange County Planning Dept. AT-IN.- Craig Benedict <br /> SUBJECT: Wildlife Rehabilitation Center at Chestnut Ridge <br /> DATE: March 19, 2003 <br /> I can think of no reason why it would not be a good idea for Dr. Schopler's practice <br /> to be located at Camp Chestnut Ridge. Birds are very beneficial creatures because of the <br /> enormous amounts of harmful insects and rodents they consume. Very few veterinarians <br /> are willing, qualified, or licensed to rehabilitate wildlife. Dr. Schopler has been an <br /> extremely valuable asset to Orange County Animal Control and to Orange County <br /> citizens in the past,while employed at the animal sanctuary on Nicks Rd. <br /> Camp Chestnut Ridge, being located near the center of Orange County would be a <br /> very convenient location to Animal Control and the public. At the present time we do not <br /> have a close facility to handle injured, orphaned and sick wildlife. We look forward to <br /> working with Dr. Schopler again in the future. <br /> Cc: John Sauls <br /> 248 <br />
