The city finally agreed to move forward with the dog park project. It was a long fight that wore us all down but the result makes the effort worth it. Keep an eye on the development plans to ensure they follow through as promised.

I want the City of North Liberty to participate in the construction and maintenance of an off-leash dog park within the city.

Our furry canine friends deserve a place to run and play without leashes in North Liberty.

Join us in asking the City of North Liberty to participate in the construction and maintenance of an off-leash dog park within the city, EVEN IF YOU DO NOT LIVE IN NORTH LIBERTY but would use a park in North Liberty.

As of February 5, 2016, we have 1,021 signatures, including 710 here and 311 collected in writing.

This is NOT a request for donations. If you are asked for a donation as part of taking this online survey, it is likely a request for a donation to support iPetition.

You CAN make donations to support our initiative through the Johnson County Dog Park Action Committee, a nonprofit 501c3. All donations are tax-deductible.

The city officials remain quiet on this proposal but I am still spending my evenings drafting follow up letters to the planning office. It feels like a long road right now yet I am not walking away from this goal.

I baby sit every Wednesday in North Liberty. The family has a very active, 7-month old Soymoyed puppy. He needs a place to run off his excess energy, which he now relieves by biting.

If there was a dog park in north liberty, my dogs and I would attend everyday. I love the Iowa city dog park, but it takes 25 minutes to get there making it very inconvenient for us to attend more than 2-3 times a week. NORTH LIBERTY NEEDS A DOG PARK!!

A dog park is a major benefit for any community. It promotes a healthy lifestyle, is an added perk to promote moving to a community, and reduces canine behavior problems.

With North liberty having so many zero lots it makes sense to have a public space for dogs to run and play and for dog people to socialize as well, I think this could be another step in building strong community for North Liberty

In my experience as i have worked at the dog park. These parks generate more traffic than any other city park. They also generate more income in tag sales. Be mindful of the closing terms don't underestimate the tag fees.

Off leash dog parks are a great asset to the community and a huge attraction as I begin my search for a house! I think it would be a great selling point for others looking to relocate to the area!
