Title:

Off-leash Area Consideration

Purpose/Background:

The purpose of this case is for an opportunity to continue the discussion relative to the complaint that the city does not have a designated 'small dog' off-leash area. For the meeting, Commission and Staff may review options available in responding, which include (no order):
  • Develop a new, small dog only off-leash area in the City
  • Do nothing at this time, understanding that there are many undeveloped park areas where people can take dogs for an off-leash experience
  • Change Alpine Parks new expansion area to a use different than what was intended
  • Create a new off-leash area in Ramsey's downtown, with both a small dog only, and an unrestricted fenced area(s)
  • Conduct a survey of residents to determine the scope of need for a small dog only area
  • Other
