A fenced dog park in College Heights has been a success, council heard Wednesday night. And that means a new one is warranted.
Southridge Park opened in June and is operated as part of the People, Pets and Parks Off Leash Program.
A second facility is planned for Perry Park, which had what council was told were underutilized and non-CSA-compliant playground equipment. That equipment has since been removed. The park is located between Ferry Avenue and Wilson Crescent near Van Bien Elementary School.
Work to turn Perry Park into a fenced dog park is underway and should be done by November, city staff reported to council.
