Downtown Dog Park Open House

City of Winnipeg - Public Engagement News

New Opportunities for Engagement with the City of Winnipeg

Bark for your Park – Downtown Dog Park Open House

The City of Winnipeg is exploring options for the creation of a downtown off-leash dog park and we want to hear from you.

You're invited to an open house on February 24, 2016 to get an update on the project, see results from the online survey conducted in January, and provide feedback on possible locations for the dog park and potential features.

A neighbourhood dog park in downtown Winnipeg will help build stronger community ties by fostering social meet-ups for dogs and people. It will also be an amenity that will encourage downtown living and help make dog ownership in the downtown more accessible.

Date:        Wednesday, February 24, 2016

Time:        4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.

Location:   Carol Shields Auditorium, second floor of Millennium Library, 251 Donald Street

For more information, please visit www.winnipeg.ca/DowntownDogPark

Crime Prevention Tip

  SAFETY TIPS WHEN USING PARKADES
     
       There are two types of parkades:
     
    1)    Parkades open to the public with uncontrolled pedestrian access
     
    2)    Parkades with controlled access by the use of electronic swipe cards, etc. (commonly used in apartment blocks and condominiums)
     
    •   When entering or exiting an apartment or condominium parkade always wait for  the door to close. Watch for anyone sneaking in behind you and call police if necessary;


    •   Regardless of where you park your vehicle, do not leave anything in your vehicle that could tempt a thief;


    •   Always lock your vehicle.   If your vehicle handheld key / remote has an emergency button or horn, keep it ready in your hand to be able to alert anyone around you;

  •   Carry your registration and insurance with you.  Do not leave it in the car.  this will protect you against identity theft;
   
    •   Do not leave your electronic swipe card in your vehicle. A thief may steal it and later use it to break in while you are away;
   
    •   Never leave a spare key in your vehicle;
   
    •   Consider using a "club" to secure the steering wheel if you have an older vehicle without adequate anti-theft features;
   
    •   Consider your personal safety. Plan ahead and know what to do if something happens. The best defense against an attack is awareness and action. If faced with an uncomfortable or dangerous situation, leave the parkade and seek assistance.
