New off-leash dog park credited to railland collaboration and private support
Summary
The mayor said a new off-leash dog park, Bark And Whistle, opened after a collaboration using Coos Bay rail line land and material support from Ironclad Boat and RV Storage, and already serves residents and visitors.
The mayor highlighted a recently opened off-leash dog park called Bark And Whistle, which she said became possible through a collaboration that allowed the city to use land from the Coos Bay rail line and through donated material from Ironclad Boat and RV Storage. She described the park as quickly becoming a welcoming place for neighbors and their dogs.
"The dog park has already became a welcoming together place for neighbors, family, and their 4 legged friends," the mayor said. The project was presented as an example of partnership between the city, a railroad landowner and private businesses rather than a fully city-funded capital project.
