Animal Control Concerns Make July Ballot In Burke County

By NBC Augusta Staff

In July, Burke County voters will get to share their thoughts on how the area should deal with its rising stray pet population.

Burke County leaders say the ballot referendum will help them get input from the public about the ongoing problem.

Opponents have said an animal shelter would cost the county too much money.
