• A resident living in a nearby apartment says they would like a dog park so their dog can socialise and learn new activities in a controlled open space.
• A new resident is concerned about potential noise, excess dog excrement and over-crowding at the park.
• A dog owner who uses a wheelchair says the closest dog park is 6km away and would appreciate one closer to home.
• A park visitor is unsure about a dog park, explaining that some owners are too complacent in fenced areas and get distracted by their phones rather than watching their dogs.
• A resident says many families will benefit from a dog park as not all dogs are comfortable off-leash in an open area. They say Macfaull Park has ample space to accommodate dog park, without compromising existing uses.
