Park & Recreation Commission Minutes of June 25, 1997 Page 4 was successful then it would be more of an argument to sell a change in the ordinance. Terry Ander lini thanked staff for working on this issue and expressed his approval of the recommended site. He spoke to the recommendations in the staff report and said he felt we should focus on the Marina A si te until it is no longer available. He felt that since this is a public facility, it should be maintained by the City but the Shores Dogs would support maintenance by the users. He said the Shores Dogs would raise funds for this project but it should be the City's responsibility for funding. Mr. Anderlini said he likes the idea of a trial period and would support that. He felt the City should provide trash pick-up at least once a week for the site. Mr. Anderlini said he was in agreement with most of the recommendations but was not comfortable with a private lease arrangement. He also recommended that dogs be required to be licensed and vaccinated in order to use the site. A bulletin board would also be helpful at the site to provide information to the users. M/S Davis/Hughes: That the City Council be informed that the Park and Recreation Commission is interested in establishing a dog exercise area on the Marina A site.
