Small Dog Park Expansion
The Open Space Section with the City is looking at expanding the dog park in Hyde Park to include a small dog area. Attached is an aerial view of what this expansion would look like.
No residents back this dog park area so flyers where not sent out, but there is an opportunity for residents to give feedback on the expansion. The online survey is available (https://www.saskatoon.ca/engage/dog-parks-small-dogs) and there will be a public information session on April 12th.
