History of LACBecause all citizens are not good pet owners, there was a need for animal control within the City of Louisville. The strategic plan for Louisville included a new ordinance and a facility to house the animals in order to enforce the ordinance. The Mayor and Department Heads visited several towns, saw their animal shelters, and asked questions about their policies. The Board of Aldermen made a commitment to adopting a new and effective animal control ordinance by having a public hearing and drafting several plans before they came up with a policy that was enforceable and reasonable. Then the hard part began. Money had to be allocated in the budget, and spent on the facility.
In the 2004-2005 budget, the city spent $21,600.00 on purchasing the land and an existing building to use for the animal control facility. As of September 30, 2006, the City of Louisville had completed the facility. Jody Fulton was named the department head and attended the National Animal Control training and certification class. The Animal Control Ordinance was effective October 6, 2005. The Animal Control Department had its start. For the 2010-2011 budget, $74,400 has been allocated for the annual expenses. Barbara Yarbrough is the full time animal control employee. The city leaders are proud of the success of the Louisville Animal Control Department..
