SPOKANE – Spokane Public Schools and City of Spokane Parks & Recreation invite the community to two dog park open houses to hear updates and provide design feedback.

 

High Bridge Dog Park Renovation

906 W. Main

Small South Hill Dog Park

April 25, 6 p.m.

Peperzak Middle School

The plan to replace the unofficial south hill dog park, displaced due to construction of Peperzak middle school, involves two locations to best meet the needs and desires we heard through outreach with dog park users and neighbors.

 

  • High Bridge Park - We are finalizing a design for major enhancements and improvements to the condition of the existing 9.3-acre community dog park at High Bridge Park, which meets the interest and commitment to a minimum 5-acre size.

 

  • New Small Dog Park on the South Hill - We have finalized design for a small dog park to be located on 1.7 acres of school district property located near the previous unofficial dog park at the corner of 63rd & Regal, which meets the interest and commitment to a south hill location. This property will be transferred to the City and be owned and operated by City of Spokane Parks & Recreation after its completion.

 

Those unable to attend can view materials at www.SpokaneParks.org a few days after each event, and email comments to parks@spokanecity.org.
