Dove Center Brd. Announces Locale For New Facility



Dove Center Brd. Announces Locale For New Facility


Apr. 8, 2010

The Dove Center has announced the location for its planned new office and shelter complex in Oakland. The Dove Center is Garrett County's independent non-profit agency formed in 1991 to advocate for and provide assistance to victims of domestic violence.
The Dove Center board of directors acquired property for the new complex from Dr. David Tuel, located behind his professional office building just off Memorial Drive in Oakland. Tuel and his wife Dorothy, who serves as chairperson of the Dove Center board of directors, transferred the property for half of its appraised value and committed to buy it back at cost should the project not come to fruition.

Architectural design and preparatory site work will be completed soon, according to Heather Hanline, center director. The complex will provide expanded temporary residential quarters for victims, as well as staff offices and a counseling center.

The Dove Center has begun Phase II of its capital campaign to raise enough money to begin construction.

"Once again we have applied for Community Development Block Grant funding for the project," Hanline said. "Not already owning 'shovel-ready' property was one of the reasons our application was turned down last year. CDBG administrators also advised that we need more local support and cash on hand to guarantee the facility will be fully completed in a timely manner."
