Danbury moves forward on dog park creation

Danbury has taken another step forward in creating an off leash dog park.  The City Council has approved a committee recommendation to repurpose four acres of land off Miry Brook Road into a fenced in area for dogs.  Mayor Mark Boughton was asked by a Council member about making the park open to Danbury residents only.Dogs must be licensed, but there will be no other restrictions.  Boughton says no one will be staffing the park, so there's no real way to enforce a residency restriction. 

 

An ordinance still needs to be amended before the park can become a reality.

 

The proposed park would be fenced in, for daytime use only and have limited parking.  Planning and Zoning approvals are required as well as rules being adopted by the Director of Recreation.

 

A sign would be posted saying that aggressive dogs are not allowed.
