Project Description
The proposed project includes a major redevelopment of the existing Wildcare facilities with new animal hospital, educational, and animal housing facilities. Wildcare is a wildlife hospital, nature education center and wildlife advocacy organization. The proposal includes: relocating and restoring the historic Terwilliger Building; demolishing all other existing structures on the site; constructing a new 11,400 square foot attached three-story animal hospital and office building along with a new courtyard for gathering spaces and for the educational Ambassador Animals. In addition, the applicant proposes to install a new bridge crossing the San Rafael Creek and to improve the portion of the creek adjacent to the property by removing invasive plants and planting appropriate native plants.
