Cody Swander was in a,ttendanc,e. He shared some of his experiences 'with the
d�og park in Nampa. He thought the overall layout of the dog park was good, but
he suggested that we create two areas for large dogs. He said the biggest
challenge i is keeping large dogs away from areas that are overused. If
we were to b:uild a dog park that he two, areas separated by a fence for largle,
dogs, he feelsthat OUr Parks staff would have an easier time maintaining the
park. Mr. Swander also provided advice on operating policies and services his
office provides he Nampa dog park.
