The original cost was estimated at $8 million. 16, Day voiced impatience with the delays by the supervisors in recommending a substitute site and their reluctance with some county legislators to support an additional $10 million toward the construction of the shelter. Rockland Green, the county's solid waste management agency, is interested in overseeing the animal shelter in cooperation with the Humane Society, according to Phillips, who chairs the Rockland Green board, which comprises the other supervisors, legislators and representatives of Day. The Hudson Valley Humane Society would be interested in running the replacement shelter, according to the County Executive's Office. The Hi-Tor Animal Center, the current volunteer operator, wants to continue running the older facility and later the new one. The county government moved ahead on its end by getting responses to a July 19 request for information from operators interested in running the current shelter for two years or the new shelter if it's built. Rockland gets interest for shelter operator While Day recently voice his impatience in a letter to the town supervisors, Haverstraw Supervisor Howard Phillips said Thursday a list of alternative sites exists and said more time to make new plans is warranted. The county owns the land proposed for the shelter, near the dilapidated facility across from the Rockland Fire Training Center and the Ramapo stadium in the Pomona area off Pomona Road and Route 45. The towns and county signed a cooperation agreement in 2018.
