At this time Mrs. Sallie Murphy appeared before the Commission to register a complaint con­cerning the new animal shelter.

Thereafter the Commission requested that Mrs. Murphy contact the City Manager concerning her complaint to see what emergency steps can be taken by the City to take care of the animals.
