On October 12, 2015, the Mobile County Commission approved a list of county-wide capital improvement projects to be paid for through the issuance of $26.6 million in General Obligation Improvement Warrants. Click Here for a listing of the approved capital improvement projects. Standard and Poor's Rating Services also recently assigned a AA stable outlook rating to the county's existing general obligation debt. The strengths of Mobile County's financial management, as noted by the S & P, report reflect the county's strong budgetary performance, very strong budgetary flexibility, liquidity, and management, with strong financial policies and practices.

PetoftheWeekFEATURED MOBILE COUNTY ANIMAL SHELTER
PET OF THE WEEK, "SUSIE Q"
 

   
"Susie Q" is a 3-year-old Rat Terrier mix whose tail wags faster than the eye can see when she's happy, which is all the time!  She has been spayed, received her 5-in-1 vaccine, bordatella vaccine, 1-year rabies vaccine, and a wormer. Her adoption fee has been reduced to $20 for the month of October to celebrate National Adopt-a-Shelter-Dog Month.
If you are interested in adopting "Susie Q", please contact the Mobile County Animal Shelter (MCAS) at 574-3647 (DOGS) or stop by the shelter at 7665 Howells Ferry Road. You can also follow the MCAS on Facebook, Instagram (mcacshelter), or Twitter (@mcacshelter) to receive updates about adoptable pets and upcoming events!
