<br />Attachment A <br />OFF LEASH DOG AREA PROPOSAL <br />Purpose <br />At the February joint PTRC/City Council meeting, the Council gave preliminary approval for the <br />PTRC to move further into researching the possibility of creating an off leash dog area in Arden <br />Hills. The Council asked the committee to research and present a proposal to Council for <br />consideration. <br />Potential Locations <br />The PTRC has researched possible locations for an off leash dog area and recommend the <br />followingseasonal location: <br />Hazelnut Park Hockey Rink <br />1.–3301 New Brighton Road <br />Areas that would be possibilities in the future if the seasonal off leash dog area at HazelnutPark <br />isa success: <br />1.Freeway Park Hockey Rink –1370 W. County Road E -The Council delayed the CIP <br />proposed enhancements to this park. The PTRC has concerns about putting an off leash <br />dog area without improvements to the parking area. In addition, there are concerns <br />about the drainage of the ice rinkand safety due to proximity to Highway 51.The soils <br />in the hockey rink hold water late into spring and make it unusable until mid to late June, <br />depending on weather.Improvements to the grade/soils will need to be considered with <br />enhancements in order for this park to be used in May/June as an off leash dog area. <br />The location of therink next to the entrance to Highway 51 could be a safety hazard for <br />dogs that run away from owners. <br />2.Parkshore Dr. park land -Land was given to the City for park land. Staff is unsure <br />about the cost for development.A parking area would need to be constructed, the entire <br />area would need to be graded and perimeter fencing added. More research is needed to <br />estimate costs at this site. <br />3.City Hall –The land just east of the City Hall parking lot. Staff is unsure about the cost <br />for development.Parking for certain City events is challenging and with the addition of <br />an off leash dog area, could cause potential problems. More research is needed to find <br />out wetland impacts, grading, etc… The Council will need to evaluate if an off leash <br />dogarea is a good fit adjacent to City Hall. <br />17 <br />Page of <br />
