Animal Care and Control Facility

The city's animal shelter appears in San Francisco's capital documents as a problem to be solved. The 2016 Capital Plan describes the then-current shelter at 1200 15th Street as a seismically vulnerable building constructed in 1931, and lists a $49 million Animal Care and Control Facility Renovation and Seismic Retrofit among its earthquake and safety improvements; the adopted five-year financial plan folds the same work into a public health and safety bond alongside seismic strengthening at San Francisco General. The financing then changed shape. The mayor's proposed budget counts a replacement facility among the projects carried by Certificates of Participation, which the plan reserves for projects with a revenue source or critical seismic work, and on 29 November 2016 the Board of Supervisors authorized certificates of up to $60,500,000 to finance the acquisition, construction and improvement of an animal care and control facility. What was built shows on the parcel at 1419 Bryant Street: a $26.5 million permit, now complete, to convert a former transit-agency building — two new storeys inside the existing brick envelope, with new structural support — followed by a $2.9 million build-out of unoccupied third-floor shell space issued in 2025.
