Off-leash parks meeting planned

A date is soon to be set for the long-awaited public meeting to discuss allowing dogs off-leash in St. James Park and Power St. park, Pam McConnell’s office confirms.

Once a meeting is scheduled, notice will be sent to buildings within a certain radius of the park. In addition, notice will be sent via email to the ad-hoc group of dog owners and off-leash advocates who had called for the park to be set aside for frisky fidos.

While the news has most tails wagging, community members with questions and concerns can attend the meeting for more information. Register to receive notice of the meeting by calling McConnell’s office at (416) 392-7216 or by sending an e-mail to councillor_mcconnell@toronto.ca.
