Residents hope to bring dog run to East River State Park
At least part of East River State Park should literally go to the dogs, hopes some Williamsburg residents.
According to Jackie Meyer of community advocacy group Friends of East River State Park, the park “is underfunded [and] a dog run was just one of the things that has been discussed. There seems to be a really great need for it in this area, which is overrun by dogs” that have nowhere to play.
The doggy dream could become a reality if the dog run plan is approved this week during the latest round of voting in Councilmember Stephen Levin‘s participatory budgeting process.
