Subject
Please Fund a New Hillsborough County Pet Resource Center
Message
Dear Commissioner [Name], I am a Hillsborough County resident writing to urge you to support funding for a new Pet Resource Center. The current facility on Falkenburg Road is more than 40 years old. Only three of its seven kennels have air conditioning. The shelter has experienced flooding and lacks adequate climate control and isolation areas. In August 2026, the County reported that PRC was well above capacity, with almost 300 dogs and more than 150 cats. A new facility would better serve the animals in County care, as well as the staff, volunteers, adopters and residents who depend on this shelter. I respectfully ask that you support funding for a new Pet Resource Center in the FY2027 budget. Thank you for your service to our community. [Your Name] [Your Address] [Your City, State, ZIP]
