Renovation of a municipal facility in Bellaire, Texas. Conceptual plans call for the renovation of a municipal facility.

The Animal Shelter Replacement Project was instituted at the request of City Council in response to citizen requests for improvements to the existing dog pound facility. Based on feedback from Council during the August 1 and August 15, 2022 budget workshops, the new animal shelter would be a modular facility at a to-be-determined location. A workshop on the animal shelter to finalize design and location will be held in early FY 2023. The current scope is a 28' x 50' prefabricated dog kennel building that would accommodate up to eight dogs. Unless another location is identified, the animal shelter would remain in its current location or move to Anderson St. on the north side of the city, behind the Wal-Mart. Both locations would require the structure to be raised out of the floodplain and an ADA ramp. Site preparation, ordering/receiving the prefabricated building, and then final outfitting of the building will likely take more than twelve months. This project is in included in the city's FY 2023-2027 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). As of May 2, 2023, this project is on indefinite hold. Further details regarding design and construction have not been identified. *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP).
