Keep Jack Edwards reserve Leash free


Keep Jack Edwards reserve Leash free
The issue
The City of Monash would like to reduce the off leash areas of Jack Edwards Reserve by over half of the space.
Considerations include keeping the scout hall area only as leash free, and removing access to the soccer pitch, with leash on around the pitch.
Reducing the area to the scout hall area goes against the report submitted that points out there will be too many dogs for the narrow gaps. Other things not considered have been the cross over of the children who access the hall, and the wildlife in the area and the spectators who watch the soccer on the artificial pitch.

But also let us tell them how many dogs use the park daily, weekly or occasionally.
