Description This project will replace and or improve trails, fencing and other amenities at Thornberry and Rita's Ranch Dog Parks. Thornberry will include trail resurfacing and fencing repairs. Rita's Ranch will include a new loop trail and fencing repairs. Both parks may include other site amenity updates.

Justification The trail surface at Thornberry is reaching the end of it's life and fencing repairs would make gates and existing fences safer and more user friendly. Rita's Ranch does not currently have interior paths or routes to the shelters. Addition of paths would make the location more accessible and fencing repairs would improve gate access points. Both locations would also benefit from updates to aging site amenities.
