New construction of a municipal facility in Saluda, South Carolina. Completed plans call for the construction of a municipal facility.

Saluda County is soliciting sealed proposals from qualified contractors to design and construct an animal shelter kennel on the vacant property located at 4390 Batesburg Hwy. Saluda, SC 29138. Questions concerning this proposal must be e-mailed to h.griffin@saludacounty.sc.gov 1. GRADING AND PREPERATION OF SITE Grading of the construction site and all preparation needed to begin construction will be the responsibility of the contractor. 2. CONCRETE SLAB The kennel is to be constructed on a 24' by 40' concrete slab. Proper drainage for water used to clean the kennels will need to be allowed for. The slab is to be surrounded on all sides by gravel extending 4' from the slab. 3. COVERING The covering over the kennel is to be constructed of metal with at least one full side (facing road) closed in with tin. Sufficient over-hang of the tin on all sides will need to be included to help prevent rain water from blowing in on the animals. 4. FENCING The entire structure is to be surrounded by chain link fencing with black out panels. The fencing will need a gate located on the parking area side to allow for an animal control truck to pull entirely inside the fence and close the gate to unload animals safely and prevent escape. The area in which the truck will pull in will need to be graveled. 5. PLUMBING & ELECTRICAL Water will need to be run from the near by building to the kennels for a hose and there will need to be electricity to provide LED overhead lighting provided by the contractor and outlets sufficient to power fans and heat lamps when necessary. We would like the proposal to include a solution to the issue of proper disposal of animal waste that is hosed off of the concrete slab. The chain link kennels that will hold the animals will be provided by the County and do not need to be included in the proposal.
