Following analysis of survey results and technical review (accessibility,land ownership, and feedback from local residents) 19 locations have been selected for installation of Pop-up Dog Parks. A map of the locations is available here

Pop-up Dog Parks will operate until November, weather permitting. Each Pop-up Dog Park location has etiquette and boundary signage, dog waste bags and dispenser, and garbage cans.

Residents can share their feedback on their experience visiting or living near a Pop-up Dog Park in the Phase 2 Public Engagement survey available May 16 - October 1 online or through a paper survey at one of the Pop-up Dog Park locations.
