Final OLA renewal & expansion concept

Based on feedback from round 2 engagement, minor changes have been made to the final concept for the renewal and expansion of the dog off-leash areas at Emery Barnes Park.

• Pet-specific synthetic turf will be the primary surfacing material in the OLAs. This turf includes a sand-like material, zeolite, in place of rubber crumb, which helps to cool the turf surface and limits smells from pet waste. An irrigation system and pet-safe cleaning solution will also be used to keep the surface clean and cool and limit smells.
• Mounds and some agility elements have been removed to create more open space for running and playing
• Small boulders have been added to the small/shy dog OLA as stepping stones for agility.
