The City Council approved $300,000 for the construction of the dog park in the FY23 CIP. An additional $95,000 was previously allocated to the project when the initial cost opinion exceeded the budget.

The scope of the project has been reduced from initial design to decrease estimated project cost within approved budget.

The dog park will consist of two areas – one for large dogs and one for small dogs, concrete central plaza, shade structures, dog waste stations, and drinking fountains for people and dogs.

The opinion of probable cost for construction, including design and engineering fees, is approximately $349,600 and is within the $366,850 available budget.

It is anticipated the project will occur over late summer and be completed by late fall of 2024.
