The off-leash area of Golden Gardens is about to get even more dog-friendly, with plans to install agility equipment at the park. Seattle Parks and Recreation will host an open meeting at the park (8498 Seaview Pl NW) on Thursday, August 30 from 4 to 6pm for the community to review and comment on the plans.
The improvements come as part of a funding initiative known as the People, Dogs and Parks Plan to improve off-leash areas throughout the city. Seattle Parks has $100,000 to spend annually until 2020 for the improvements, which will encompass upgrades to aging infrastructure and extra maintenance.
So far, four projects have been completed around the city since 2016, including a new fence at Magnuson Park, small- and shy-dog areas at Genesee and Woodland Parks, and infrastructure improvements at Regrade Park.
