A proposal for a dog park on city-owned land between McCorkle Drive and the U.S. 11 bypass was made to Lexington City Council during a work session this past Thursday. Patrick Madigan and Thomas Wagner of the city’s Public Works Department made a presentation on a conceptual plan to develop the dog park on a long, narrow .2-acre strip of land. Preliminary cost estimates for the project, eyed for the spring of 2024, were estimated at $54,240. The project would include a 48-inch-high split-rail fence with wire fabric, posts and dual gates, signage, riprap around a slope and an adjacent paved parking lot. The consensus of Council was to have staff develop more detailed plans.
