More Dog Park Petition Details

At the March 10 Town Board meeting in Somers, NY the Board received a petition supporting the creation of an off-leash dog park in Somers. Faye DeSanto, Jackie Bassett and Joan Kazin presented the Town Board with the petition signed by 535 residents. The signatures were gathered from various locations in Somers over the course of the month. At the meeting, Ms. DeSanto indicated that private donations could cover the cost of fencing around the park, the most major expense. She also offered the town the support and work of those who signed the petition in helping to establish and implement the park.
The agenda for the March 22 meeting of the Somers Parks and Recreation Department includes the dog park as an item for discussion.
