Feedback is being sought on the city’s off-leash dog park in Germain Park.

The facility opened as one-year ‘pilot’ project last May on the understanding it would be reviewed before becoming permanent.

It took city council 10 years and three proposals before finally agreeing to test the one-acre site on the south side of Germain with two separately fenced areas, one for large dogs and another for small and senior dogs.

City staff are now gathering information for a final report to council, which will include a recommendation on the dog par’s future.

A public survey is available at https://www.smartsarnia.com until March 30.
