The Park District of Franklin Park is thrilled to announce that plans for a community Dog Park are moving forward! Discussions about a potential Dog Park began in April 2024 when the Park District and Village staff identified a centrally located, Village-owned property at 9621 Pacific Avenue as the most suitable site. Over the past several months, both agencies collaborated on an Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) and necessary ordinance updates to make this project a reality.
While we are eager to move forward, several logistical and operational details are still being finalized. Currently, there is no set groundbreaking or opening date, but we will continue to provide updates as progress is made. We encourage you to visit our website and follow us on social media for the latest information.
Thank you for your enthusiasm and support. We can’t wait to bring this exciting new amenity to Franklin Park!
