Proposed new dog park in Taylors Lakes

You are invited to come and talk to us about a proposal for the dog park in Taylors Lakes Linear Easement.

The dog park in Sandpiper Drive will include:

  • an inviting space for dogs and their owners
  • plenty of open space and improved facilities
  • a fully enclosed space and separate area for small dogs
  • drinking fountain, bins, dog waste bag dispensers, signage and seating.

This parkland area is of high significance for local fauna species, which means features within this dog park will be low-key to minimise the need to remove existing vegetation.

Concept plan developed

Our draft concept plan for the proposed dog park has been developed which shows the proposed location of access gates and features.

One section of the park will be enclosed to allow for a shared user path to be built in the future so there is a separation between path users and dogs.

Currently, the large size and linear shape of the fenced area between Kings Rd and Sandpiper Drive does not follow dog park design guidelines. This means there needs to be adequate ability for owners to control and re-call their dogs.

One section will be enclosed, while the remaining dog off-leash area will be retained, but with fencing removed.
