Two years ago San Angelo City Council approved borrowing $2 million to fund two capital projects. Animal Shelter renovation and street light installation.
The street light went in but shelter renovations are yet to even go out for bid. City staff missed date after date after date it represented to Council.
Mayor Brenda Gunter asked staff for an update at a recent Council meeting. So far there is no sign of a public response.
Update 3-16-25: The current Capital Improvement Plan has a 4-2-24 start date for Animal Shelter Rehabilitation.
Update 12-2-25: City Council heard a new direction for Animal Shelter facility improvements for dogs. It involves building pods with indoor/outdoor areas. The city may be able to build three or four pods with the original $2 million borrowing that was paid back over two years ago. With serious, professional Shelter management in place, this plan has a chance of coming to life.
