| FOR OPEN SPACE |
| The crushing loss of open space
in our area is hard to imagine, and has been quoted as “An Acre
An Hour.” A concept such as The Animal Welfare Project
can actually help save our diminishing open space in a variety
of ways: |
1.) Land will be needed for training dogs, schooling horses
over cross-country obstacles, riding through trail systems,
and
providing retirement facilities. Horses need pastures to graze
in, and dogs need fields to play in. |
2.) Hay can grow in waving meadows.
People can walk through wild flower wetlands and enjoy sweeping
views of protected open space that will never be built up.
|
3.) Public “Bark Parks” are going to be available for
the public to bring their own dog to play off-leash. Parade
grounds for different civic events are also planned, so the
entire community can come out and take advantage of the concept.
This ability to further serve the community, while preserving
open space, is a dove-tailing concept needing further exploration.
