County confirms animal shelter purchase; project budgeted from shelter fund
Summary
Staff reported the county has $365,000 allocated for a prefabricated animal shelter; the building price is estimated at $220,870 with site work bringing total toward about $280,000, leaving a healthy contingency balance in the shelter fund.
County project staff told commissioners the estimated cost of a prefabricated animal shelter building is $220,870; with a concrete slab, utilities and site work the project estimate rises toward roughly $280,000. Staff said the animal shelter fund currently holds $365,000 allocated for the project.
"The estimated cost of the building is $220,870," staff said. The remainder of the site work (slab, utilities, access and fencing) will add to that figure; staff estimated additional items could be considered later (fencing, security, phones). Project documents and engineering drawings will follow once original contract documents are signed; staff expects work to begin after procurement and design steps and estimated a spring target for the facility to be placed.
Commissioners thanked staff for moving the project and noted the remaining fund balance will allow purchase and initial installation with additional items to be considered later.
