urry 01 S-ri JoSE"'10Ei
MEETING DATE: November 16, 2015
AGENDA ITEM: Park Board—Dog Park
SUBMITTED BY: Park Board Chair—John Anderson
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: The Park Board conducted a
public hearing on September 28, 2015 to accept input on the possibility of creating a dog park in the
Northland Area, near the Wobegon Trail. The Park Board again discussed the matter at their October 26
meeting and based on evaluation of the existing parks, the Park Board is recommending designating a
portion of the drainage area in the Northland Area as a dog park.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION: The City Council was presented with a petition signed by 75
residents objecting to the location of the dog park. The petition was forwarded to the Park Board for the
October 26 Park Board Meeting.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The Park Board is in the beginning stages of planning the dog
park,but the first step is finding the location. It is the intent to have donations pay for the fencing and
volunteers will clean the area that will be used. Since the Council would have to designate the area first,
the Park Board does not want to go through a lot of planning if the site is not approved. Once approved
the Park Board can provide the Council with a development plan as it is completed.

Re: Dog Park Site Recommendation
At our October 26, 2015 the St. Joseph Park Board voted to recommend the Drainage Easement site for use as a
Dog Park.
This decision was reached after a Public Hearing on the issue during which testimony from received from
people for and against the cite. In addition, letters and emails on the issue were read into the record. In addition,
Park Board members were asked to survey each of the city parks to rank each of them based on several metrics.
Those were tabulated at the October meeting and the results indicated that the Drainage Easement was the most
logical choice,
