City of Dallas Rules
Although we are not a City of Dallas Park, we are still subject to local rules related to dogs and dog parks. Please review these and ensure you are abiding by these rules.
Park upkeep in 2018 was over $10,000. Detailed finance information can be found on the park bulletin board. Unusual expenses in 2018 included sprinkler system repair, new fans, and new dog park signs. Due to increased attendance at the park, we increased pet waste pickup to twice a week instead of once a week.
