City of Pampa Animal Welfare Facility

GH2 was engaged by the City of Pampa to design a new animal welfare facility to replace their 50-year-old facility. Our first task was to develop a preliminary design the City would take to the citizens of Pampa for a Bond vote. GH2 worked closely with the City staff, the director and staff of animal control, and the volunteer adoption group to fully understand their unique requirements. The new facility is located in Hobart Street Park which provides excellent visibility and accessibility to the community while they are enjoying the amenities of the city park located near downtown. The animal welfare facility includes integrated volunteer and community outreach program spaces, such as a multi-purpose community room and adoption center with both indoor and outdoor get-acquainted areas, as well as a large dog park.

In addition, the facility contains staff and volunteer offices and workrooms, 50 canine indoor kennels, 52 feline cat cottages, a common cattery, food prep and storage, dishwashing, laundry, a temperament assessment area, intake and bathing, euthanasia suite, and a sally port. All aspects of the facility were discussed in depth through numerous design work sessions providing an in-depth understanding of the needs and requirements for the new animal welfare facility. With this in-depth understanding, GH2 designed a solution that truly meets the current and anticipates future needs of the City of Pampa. For example, Pampa has a very active and engaged animal adoption organization and it was important to integrate space for their volunteers within the new facility to work alongside the city staff. This facility is an inviting, safe, efficient and healthy environment for the animals, staff, volunteers and community with the ability for future expansion.
