WILLISTON, N.D. (AP) - A new $5 million animal shelter is planned in Williston.

City officials broke ground on the planned facility last week.

Officials say the exterior of the 18,000-square-foot building is on track to be finished by December. Space for veterinary and grooming services for rescued dogs and cats is expected to be finished in about a year.



Officials say the facility will serve Williams and McKenzie counties, along with eastern Montana.
