Public Meeting for a Dog Park at Mt. Hood

YOUR SUPPORT IS NEEDED!!!

Who: Melrose Park Commission Monthly Meeting
What: Meeting to discuss the potential, off leash area for dogs at Mt. Hood
Where: Mount Hood Clubhouse, 100 Slayton Rd., Melrose, MA
When: Monday July 11th, 7:00PM
Why: A safe, off-leash area was initially conceived by city officials to alleviate issues on the city's fields. A city meeting was held in Feb 2009 to determine the level of interest and to involve citizens. The Melrose Dog Society (MDS) was formed to support the establishment of a dog park.

After 2+ years of work, the site being considered is at Mt. Hood behind the lower maintenance garage, west of First Pond and south of Stillman Rd.

If you would like to offer comments but cannot attend this meeting,
1) write to: Melrose Park Commission, 100 Slayton Road, Melrose, MA 02176; or 2) email jbell@cityofmelrose.org.
