Richardson City Council To Consider $1.5 Million Dog Park Plan

RICHARDSON (CBSDFW.COM) - Pet owners in Richardson may finally have somewhere for their dogs to play close to home.

The City Council meets Monday to consider a plan to turn several acres in the southwest corner of Central Expressway and Bush Turnpike into a dog park.

The land belongs to the Texas Department of Transportation, thus the city needs permission before it builds on it.

If the council approves the site, it could take at least a year to develop the park. TxDOT wouldn't receive money from the city for use of the land.
