About this Article

Despite concerns from a few neighboring businesses over noise and odors, an animal shelter and adoption facility has received unanimous approval to open in Palatine. Barb's Precious Rescue and Adoption Center will house up to 50 cats and six dogs in an old farm house at 313 N. Quentin Road. "I think I can offer the village of Palatine a solution for animal control in a very professional manner," said owner Barbara Weber.
