AM&W Kennel Renovation

Amarillo's 2023–2028 capital plan programs $1,692,406.00 for this project over five years, of which $250,000.00 is in the funded first year.

The current kennels were built in 1974. The kennel frames are deteriorating to the point that they are becoming a safety issue for both the animals and the kennel workers. Severe cracks in the shelter area are in public access areas that many times have to be roped off to keep the public, employees and animals safe. The project scope address two kennel buildings per year. Best practices involve a pre-planning phase which includes consulting an architect experienced in successful shelter design.
