Dog Park Project

Families and friend usually come to the community park and bring along their dogs to enjoy the time with the family. However, these dogs do not often have a place or space for their comfort. This paper presents a project for the development of a dog park.  The park will consist of a fenced in yard along with areas for water spouts for pets to have a place to drink from.  Waste cans will be available with bags that can be used of to help dispose of animal waste.  Lastly within the area, the pets will have a variety of items to keep them active similar to those at dog shows. 

Executive summary

The project is for the current park to dedicate a portion of land to that of a fenced in dog park within the park area.  This will allow local families with small children to bring their dogs and have them both in a safe and secure environment. The borough will have to enable the maintenance of the new part of the park to be included within that of the current maintenance of the park itself. 

The product will give the customer a conducive environment upon its completion. The customers will be able to come with the family along with the family dog to a park that will be safe for all that participate. The many performance specifications of this product will attract visitors to the areas from outside of town as there are no other ones within this area

The cultural value of the place

Historically, many ideologies have guided reflected and human actions and attitudes toward the park. Until today, the park has been providing an excellent recreational facility not only to the neighborhood community but also the whole region. The wide variety of plants and animals have created beautiful sceneries for many tourists. The park has also fostered wide scientific research studies which have elevated the quality of education in the area.

The value of cultural services has always been preserved in the park. However, more often than not, these services are taken into further recognition as they are often perceived as being “subjective”, and “intangible,” thus limiting their integration into the ecosystem services framework. Our purpose for this renovation is not only to establish a dog park but also point out the significance of cultural value and services

Legal requirements regarding heritage

Building license as well as and any construction license will need to be acquired before any start of construction.  At various stages of the project and the conclusion, we will have those various inspections are done that are part of the permits.  Contractor agreements and all necessary paperwork along with licenses and insurance paperwork will need to obtain from those involved in construction.  Also purchases for equipment and all the items required to complete the project.

Stages timelines and schedules

The quality objectives will be to set the hours of work spent during the day to 8 hours including an hour lunch break along with a four day work week which will allow the project to be completed once started in a matter on two months with a set open date before summer. 

Detailed on-site procedures

The product will work with a controlled effort from both the borough staff and the volunteers within the community.   This product has a backing of having the environment that allows pets to have exercised in a controlled, safe outside environment.  

Detailed restoration procedures and specifications

We will hire three new employees to help with the maintained and set up of the current space and two attendants that will be on staff during open hours at the new portion of the dog park. 

Owners will be given a chance to invest in the dog park by assisting with the borough in the maintenance and upkeep of the land.

This project can be accomplished through the collective action by the owners, project manager, Knox Borough and the support of the community.

The steps to complete this process will include the following:

Town hall meeting set once the project has been set into place

Meeting with Borough Major

Complying with all investors

To provide quality dog care and a healthy environment to allow the dogs to have a safe place to play and relax while being out with their owners. 

The product will be the finished product of the fenced in Dog Park and plenty of places for dogs to play including toys and dog houses.  The high-level deliverables would be to successfully outcome of the completed and successful set up of the finished park.

Hardscape maintenance requirements

The current park will dedicate a portion of land to that of a fenced in dog park within the park area.  Our contractors will start by demarcating the boundaries of the dog park. The features that the park will have are:

•    Enclosed play area

•    Grassy areas to allow for pets to interact with neighborhood dogs

•    Activities similar to those with a dog show for the dogs to maintain mobility

•    Areas to train puppies

•    Fountains for water

Soft cape maintenance requirements

The functions that must be maintained for the park to be successful in the overall commitment of those involved.  Having these that are going to be building making sure that nothing is missed to ensure safety to the guests that use the park to knowing that they need to maintain the park to allow all to enjoy.  Doing so will allow the community to grow together and have this park for many more generations to come with very little maintenance other than standard grounds and upkeep of structures. 

Materials and resources required specifications and their costs in a bill of quantities format.

Some of the bigger items to look into would be that of finding sponsors and fundraising that are needed to help offset any of the costs that might not be included with the original funding. In total, $150,000.00 will be used in project management is but we are attempting to save as much as possible with the help on sponsorships and the aid of fundraising as this is a nonprofit community park.  Included will be the cost of equipment, workers, contractors, licenses, and any other fees that might arise.  We are determined to finish the project under a schedule of six months

Environmental issues associated with executing the plan

Several environmental boundaries of the project are expected. For instance, the choice and the design of materials used to make this park a trendy place that will promote the environment that all will enjoy using as a way to be together as a complete family. Business staff will be excluded from the product along with control over what the long-term outcome of the park appearance.

Activity WHS issues

Some major WHS issues that affect the project will be the weather because it will hinder working abilities of our contractors. We will facilitate safety courses in the workplace to ensure healthy and safe training working environment.
