“ FONBAS ’ mission is to support lost and displaced animals in our community .” said Jon Langford , FONBAS President . “ We work together with the City of Newport Beach to provide the extra care and services to make every animal adoptable .”
According to information provided by FONBAS , the ribbon cutting celebrated the completion of a multi-year project that started in 2017 to raise money to purchase the land and construct a state-of-the-art animal shelter in a public-private partnership with the City of Newport Beach .
The new campus , which will officially open in June , includes a single-story , 1,600- square-foot building with a 750-square-foot kennel to house dogs , cats , and other animals , plus parking , two front-yard greeting areas , and a secure rear-yard exercise space .
“ This project is a truly outstanding example of a public-private partnership funded entirely by private resources with the city as a recipient of a valuable permanent amenity to benefit the community ” said FONBAS Board Member and Newport Beach City Council Member Robyn Grant .

manufacturing facility , he took over the helm of the shop and continued to produce superb quality , one-off models in the same old-world , hand-crafted style that had attracted yachtsmen worldwide .
Craftsmen most often work in anonymity . One such was Gardiner apprentice Dean Darusha , who last December worked out a deal with Duffield to take over the company . The deal included more than 1,000 different half-hull molds of both sailing and power boat brands , the majority of which were used to resin-cast models that were mounted on hardwood plaques .
It ’ s a known “ fact ” that few artists are businesspeople , and vice versa . But having launched a number of businesses over four decades , Logan feels he excels at the art of business , and so purchased Newport Model Boats with the hopes of expanding the business through both improved technology and more defined marketing .
Considering the aforementioned numbers of boat owners , not to mention all the boat brokers who could gift a model boat in appreciation for their purchases , and manufacturers that could provide promotional models to customers , as well as expansive marinerelated retailers , one can see that the market for sales is immense . Today ’ s basic price for a half model trophy plaque is $ 150.00 . The math is easier than calculating m . p . h . to knots .
Currently , Logan is meeting with Lorenzo Valdevit , UCI Professor of Materials Science and Engineering / Director , Materials and Manufacturing Technology , to explore improved methods of 3D printing production “ in a timely fashion , with improved quality . This can change our current laborintensive model ,” he said , in anticipation of energetic growth .
As history has shown , possessing a model of one ’ s cherished watercraft doubles the pleasure of ownership — and all without additional slip fees .
