Document Summary

Public consultation must occur when making decisions about the use of a public space. Public vision must be considered in the planning process i. e. people differed in their visions of how the dog park space should have been used (supporters of a leash-free park zoning versus dog owners who supported unorganized activity) Let the police investigate the incident and leave the park zoning as is until the investigation is complete; hope that the public comes around. Hold a public meeting that would allow interested members access to voice their concerns; create a task force to determine a shared park space so that future incidents do not occur. Insurance premiums, cost of trail permits, additional costs (i. e. gas), and number of injuries are rising. Insurance policies are 12 months long and the snowmobiling season is shortening family issues at hand. Winter tourism is at risk as well as jobs associated with the billion snowmobile- related industry.
