|
| | | | | | | | ITEM/TOPIC: Stephens Park Off-leash Area Discussion
|
| | | | | | | | PRESENTER(S): Gregg Barrie, Senior Landscape Architect
|
| | | | | | | | ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Provide staff with direction in regards to the dog waste issue based on the provided recommendations and input received from the public.
|
| | | | | | | | BACKGROUND: Stephens Park is a neighborhood park that provides a designated off-leash area. Since the off-leash designation in 2004, there have been two consistent issues: 1) the loss of the turf area for neighborhood use and 2) excessive dog waste being left in the park.
|
| | | | | | | | STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends reviewing the ideas presented in the Memorandum in conjunction with input from the community and providing direction to staff towards improving education, signage and enforceable measures. Staff also recommends altering the existing designated off-leash area to include the Gore Creek access point at a later date.
