The Chicago Park District will soon be fencing in the Susan Kimmelman Off-Leash Dog Beach, located on Montrose Beach, in Chicago. We, the Undersigned, support the Dog Beach, and are requesting the new fence be expanded to include 200 feet of additional shoreline. The Off-Leash Dog Beach is the most popular DFA in Chicago and adding more shoreline will help accommodate the growing number of dog owners who will now have access to the Beach.

The feedback I keep hearing from you about the crowding at Montrose is gutting because I see it every single day. I am hitting a wall with the Park District but I am not walking away from this yet.

Reaching this point has been exhausting but seeing the support grow makes me feel like this fight is actually winnable. It is difficult to keep pushing when the bureaucracy seems immovable but your responses remind me why I started this.

Living in Uptown and we need this space. It gets way too crowded on weekends and dogs end up getting snappy because there is no room to move.

MONTROSE IS THE BEST. Need more beach for the summer months. It is basically packed shoulder to shoulder right now.

please expand it. the park district has the land so use it for the dogs instead of letting it sit empty.

200 feet isnt even that much to ask for honestly. lets make this happen for the community.
