Dog park meeting tomorrow
If you love a dog in the city of Roanoke, or are just supportive of people who love dogs in the city of Roanoke, you should attend tomorrow's public meeting to discuss the location.
TIME: 6 p.m.
PLACE: Municipal Building, First Floor EOC Conference Room (Room 159) 215 Church Avenue, SW in downtown Roanoke
Highland Park is the most likely site for the new park, and the committe touts these points for the choice of the location:
• Not near a Major road
• More than one acre available
• Shade from more established trees
• Water source on site
• Neighborhood improvement
• Closer to downtown and other neighborhoods
• Neighborhood support for the park
The meeting was requested by the neighborhood association. The committee is sure that those who oppose the park will be in attendance. They are asking that all those in favor of the proposed location also attend to share their opinions.
This is your chance to speak up, folks. The barking dog gets the park.
The dog park meeting place has been moved from the EOC room to the council chamber.
