Vogler Rick Lavoie has begun S augus Selectman Jeffrey Cicolini and a handful of other elected town officials who share a passion for creating a dog park in Saugus are off and running with their dream. “It’s definitely something everybody is screaming for,” Cicolini told colleagues of the interest in such a project. Cicolini, who vowed late last year to make it a personal goal to help create a place where town residents can walk their dogs for exercise, briefed selectmen on his informal dog park committee at Tuesday (Jan. 25) night’s meeting. In a short period of time, Cicolini and the small group have developed a plan that focuses on Stocker Field as a possible location. He said the group has also discussed organizing into a nonprofit organization with intentions of having a “zero impact” on the town. called champ? 10. On Jan. 31, 1940, Ida 1.

I am really excited about this dog park,” she said. Cicolini said, “It’s been a long time coming.” Selectman Corinne Riley wondered whether there were laws covering the operation of dog parks.

This will keep the costs away from the taxpayers and develop a long term plan to pay for maintenance as upkeep. Trust me when I tell you, we are moving forward full steam ahead. We will be expanding the committee in the future to add additional members for input and assistance,” he said. “We also need to determine the use of other properties coming offline and that will take community input sessions etc. as there are many factors to identifying a site vs. having the site become the dog park location. For example, there are some insurance regulations we need to consider based on the potential location. I for one like Stocker as a potential site.” ANSWERS 1. “We Are the World” 2.
