Friends,

We continue to advocate for the installation of lighting at Puptown to make it accessible and welcoming well into the evening hours.

Please sign our online petition to demonstrate our strong community support for this very worthwhile investment. Our community is over 100 members strong, and our goal is to bring over 100 signatures to Alder Hoppenworth and the Park District leadership.

Mike Brown, the Supervisor of Margate Park Fieldhouse, supports our efforts and will advocate for us. The first step is to show our strong community support.

Bring Light to Puptown Dog Park

Friends,

We recently found several bags of he**in in the space just east of Puptown (very near the pollinator garden). A resident in the encampment informed us that it was brought in last night by another individual.

We have notified the Alder (Clay) and will file a police incident report.

We have communicated with the Alder our increasing concerns about these issues. The encampment has grown, and with it potential threats to dogs and their owners. The obvious dynamic is that water service attracts more tents. We have suggested to the Alder that establishing a water service at a location away from dog parks, playgrounds and other high use areas might be a wise thing to do. Frankly, it would seem to be a no-brainer.

Please contact the Alder if you are equally concerned about this situation. Many voices are more effective than one voice.
