Lily Richwine, the education & outreach coordinator for West Shore Wildlife Center explained, “When we were founded in 2019, we received permission from the township to be operating out of this building. We were just taking a couple hundred patients per year.”This year, they have taken care of over 2,000 animals so far this year.
“So the township recognized that we have outgrown this space and we’re no longer allowed to operate on this residential property, so we need to move out of this space,” stated Richwine. In September, the rescue received a letter from Newberry Township saying their type of business is not permissible for a residential area.The rescue could apply for a special exemption and pay for commercial sewage usage.“We have already outgrown this space in the first place, so to afford the rezoning costs, it was expensive, but we need a bigger space anyway,” she said. “As the only wildlife rehabilitation center in York County, we should be expected to take between 5,000 to 7,000 patients.
The rescue is trying to fundraise $300,000 by the end of this year, which is their deadline to move out.The township says they are willing to work with the rescue.
