Each kennel facility will also include central support spaces including a latrine, tack room, grooming/screening room, food prep areas, and storage rooms. Kennel facilities will also have a covered artificial turf exercise area running the length of the building, with fencing and gates to subdivide the area as necessary to isolate one or multiple dogs. Kennel buildings will be single-story structures with load bearing reinforced CMU walls at the perimeter of the buildings, brick veneer at the ends of the kennel wings and central support areas, standing seam metal roofs with a minimum 3:12 slope and sufficient insulation above deck to meet the local energy requirements, galvanized steel roof decks, open-web steel joists spanning the exterior walls without interior support columns, reinforced concrete ribbed mat slab foundations, reinforced concrete beams beneath the exterior CMU walls and interior beams, painted CMU interior construction, and sealed concrete floors.
