Slinger begins five-year parks plan update; board hears dog park fundraising status

Park, Recreation & Forestry Board · January 5, 2026

Summary

Staff will meet in January to start an updated five-year park and open space plan and will present notes at the Feb. 2 board meeting; the board also discussed the status of the Slinger Dog Park fundraising campaign but no funding totals were specified.

Director Tony Dobson told the Park, Recreation & Forestry Board on Jan. 5 that staff will meet in January to begin preliminary discussion on an updated five-year park and open space plan and that he will bring notes from that internal meeting to the board’s Feb. 2 meeting. Dobson said he hopes to have "Jackie" present for the March meeting to continue the planning conversation.

The board also discussed the future Slinger Dog Park and the current status of the fundraising campaign. No donation totals or a fundraising timeline were specified in the meeting record; the discussion served as a status update rather than a funding decision.

Board members asked staff to bring planning notes and to continue fundraising outreach for the dog park. The board set its next meeting for Monday, Feb. 2, 2026, where the five-year plan notes will be available for further discussion.
