The off-leash dog park to be constructed at the Pinal County complex will include artworks and may have solar lighting, the Apache Junction Parks and Recreation Commission was told recently.
The 2.6-acre dog park will be in a retention area on the southeast corner of Superstition Boulevard and Idaho Road. Funding for the estimated $800,000 to $1 million park are to come from development fees, grants and gifts, corporate partnerships and fundraising events.
The City Council last year approved a $57,383 contract with J2 Engineering and Environmental Design LLC plus an additional 10% contingency for unforeseen change orders for a total amount of $63,121.30 for the dog park’s design.
