This is not just a dog park. It is an intergenerational community meeting spot, with a most spectacular, wild, natural environment. It provides peace and brings mental wellness for so many. It offers a walk through nature, unlike anything nearby, offering the chance to bird watch and sit on the benches amd take in the sights and sounds- it's distance from the noise of the town and traffic makes it especially meditative. It allows the dogs to socialize as well as the people We are both creatures who need high amounts of socializing, even us introverts And an opportunity to roam free and enrich ones's senses, dogs and people alike. I encourage you deepen your commitment to the health and wellness of your community, and support the benefits of having access to this particular park. Data show when humans spend time in nature, all of our health markers improve. This park brings people and dogs togetber, yes. And it offers a guarenteed improved health amd wellness for the surrounding community . Please find a third pathway solution to keep this open. Closing it seems to be a very narrow solution. I have faith in your creativity amd commitment to the civic well being of your people. Thank you.

Repair Linda Dog Park, and, explore additional locations for off-leash dog parks in Piedmont as well. I think it is clear that many Piedmont families include their dogs as important parts of their household. Off-leash dog parks provide an opportunity to build and strengthen our community.

This is more than a dog park! It’s a community hub to meet your fellow neighbors. Dont close a local spot without providing a proper alternative

My anxious dog Lopo learned to socialize at this dog park. He originally stood around awkwardly and then after a few times, learned to join in, then he started making real dog friends that he would whine to go in and play with, now he cries every time we walk by the (locked) gate. I agree that erosion needs to be addressed, but there has to be an alternative dog park proposed or close off sections and slowly remediate. It doesn’t make sense to take this community amenity away. It strengthens both human and dog bonds!

Louisville where I grew up and lived for 25 years is unique largely because of it's parks and green spaces. We live in Scott County now, but go to Louisville often to visit dear friends and family. The park system, thanks primarily to Olmstead's plans provides places to breathe, to enjoy what the green spaces provide as respite from the concrete jungle. It's beyond reason to fill them up with more concrete. Pickleball may be fun, but simply enjoying the quiet spaces provided by Mother Nature. PLEASE don't spoil it. 🙏

There are more than 2,000 residents residing at the Mitchel Houses Development and there are many Pet Owners within the population. I care because having a Dog Park for the residential and neighborhood Dogs, it will allow all pets to exercise freely without a leash. In addition, it can promote a better control of poop waste. This is a Public Health Law to maintain a low rate of Rat Infestation and Improve Cleanliness. My name is Ms Cruz and I am the Community Resident Advocate at the Mitchel Houses Development.
Miosotis supported: Convert the Vacant Lot at Pulaski Park in Mott Haven into a Dog Park
I had the pleasure of meeting Jonas Silvia at a restaurant in the Bronx, where he shared his heartfelt story about his beloved dog who passed away. His passion, determination, and commitment to giving back to the community are truly inspiring. As a dog lover and the proud owner of a three-year-old husky named Winter, this cause is especially close to my heart. I am deeply motivated to support Jonas in bringing his vision of a dog park to life and will forever stand behind his efforts. Jonas, thank you for your hard work and dedication—you are truly making a difference.

My husband and I had our first date at this park. I use to take my dog there everyday, and I was too scared to meet him for the first time without my pup. I’m writing this 9 years later holding our first child as I heard about the park closing. That park gave me my family, it shouldn’t be shut down!

We bring our dog there all the time!!! We live in nearby condos and we love having a place to bring our pet to have the freedom to run loose!! Please do not take this away from the many condo owners that use this as the place to allow our dogs to run free!❤️

The dog park is an essential part of the community, providing a safe and designated space for dogs to exercise, socialize, and burn off energy. Without it, pet owners would have limited options for giving their dogs the physical activity they need, leading to potential behavioral issues and increased strain on shared public spaces. Beyond benefiting pets, the park fosters a sense of community among neighbors, encouraging social interaction and strengthening local bonds. It also contributes to the overall well-being of residents by promoting outdoor activity and mental relaxation. Closing the dog park would remove a valuable resource that enhances the neighborhood.
