City staff recommend Alexander & Johnson for Westside Dog Park design and construction

Melissa Petrone, Parks and Recreation Director, described the Westside Dog Park project, saying it will be located near 100th and 8th Terrace on the west side of Tamarac. An evaluation committee reviewed two proposals and recommended Alexander and Johnson Project Management Development as the contractor for design and construction; staff presented a base bid figure during the presentation.

Petrone described the planned amenities: separated large- and small-dog areas, a walking path, shaded covered areas and benches, water fountains, waste-disposal stations, solar-powered lights and Wi‑Fi access. "This will include the design and construction," she said.

Staff presented the contract recommendation as part of consent-item review; the commission preview did not record a formal award vote at this meeting.
