Abstract/Artist Statement
First built in 1959, the Stockton Animal Shelter takes in about 10,000 animals a year, making it the largest open-admission animal shelter serving the City of Stockton and San Joaquin County. In an ongoing effort to recover from the fallout of the COVID-19 pandemic and continue expansion on programs seeded by the CARES Act in 2020, the City of Stockton proposed an allocation of approximately $6 million in 2022 for Animal Shelter Facilities. Plans include:
Construction of a new 8,000 square foot steel frame building which is to include:
- Cattery
- Surgical area
- Offices containing 4-6 cubicles
- Restrooms
- Conference room
- Animal isolation area
In addition to the new building, we are expanding the existing parking area to accommodate the larger building. We are implementing additional low-impact development measures in these areas to reduce the overall effect that the building and new construction will have on the environment.
Upgrading and expanding the resources of the current animal shelter will allow the Stockton Animal Shelter to continue to serve the community safely and effectively. BERP Co. is confident in its ability to design a modern and sustainable new building while also implementing the needs of the City of Stockton and the Stockton Animal Shelter.
