The Wildlife Rehabilitation Center of Northern Utah is slated for eviction, with some Ogden City Council members questioning the move and the nearby Ogden Dinosaur Park set to expand.
The Wildlife Rehabilitation Center of Northern Utah is set to be evicted in September from its city-owned space.
Marthaler said her understanding is the center would be demolished to expand the nearby Ogden Dinosaur Park — potentially for a new parking lot. City leaders say that’s not necessarily the case.
Initially, their agreement with the city would only last 180 days, but Marthaler recalled city officials saying back then WRCNU just had to prove their worth before making the deal long-term. The Ogden wildlife rescue is the only of its kind in northern Utah, with the next closest facility being in Utah County. Marthaler said there are two people trying to start their own rescue in Salt Lake, but getting a permit requires working at a licensed facility for at least two years.
But even if the WRCNU finds a new home, it doesn’t make up for the improvements and renovations it’s already done to the current facility. Marthaler said in the years since first moving in, WRCNU has installed a new H-VAC system, new carpet and other projects.‘I don’t see how this is serving anybody’, numerous community members showed their support of the WRCNU, calling on the council to prevent the animal rescue from being kicked out.
