Dear Friends,
  

Here are the topics in this e-newsletter:

1) Downtown Dog Park Survey Open
2) Transportation Conversations 

 

1) Downtown Dog Park Survey Open

 
The City of Winnipeg has launched a survey to collect community input on the creation of a downtown dog park. Citizens are invited to participate in a brief survey to help the City better understand where dog owners live in the downtown, where residents would like to see an off-leash dog park built and preferences for dog park amenities.

To access the survey, click here.
For more information on the project click here or contact 311.

The survey will be open until January 20, 2016. The results will assist in locating and planning the dog park.

 

In winter of 2016, there will be an in-person event to update the public on the project progress.
