Body
BACKGROUND:
The Parks and Recreation Department is currently designing the second dog park located at McInnish Sports Complex, adjacent to the Animal Services building. In the design, a concrete pavilion has been located at the entrance of the dog park to service all three sections. Each section of the dog park will be rotated between big dogs, little dogs, and being closed for maintenance, depending on the season. A six-foot vinyl coated fence will run between sections of the concrete pavilion to separate big dogs and little dogs between their respective spaces. This concrete pavilion will serve as a place for dog owners and their canine companions to congregate. Picnic tables will be provided in all three sections. To offer some relief from the Texas sun, two 4-post shade structures measuring 18’x16’ and 18’x32’ will be purchased and installed to provide plenty of shade for each section.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
The shade structures for the McInnish Dog Park will be funded out of the following account:
