Portage is an expanding city. It has an existing dog park, but it is small and in need of replacement. The city wants the newly designed park to be a desirable destination and stop for people driving along the busy highways and freeways nearby as well as for local community members. The scope of work for this project includes the design and construction of the recreation and dog park including anentrance road from Gunderson Drive, a 30-carparking lot, a masonry park shelter, walking paths, fenced-in spaces for dogs both large and small, a connection to the newly constructed adjacent subdivision, stormwater management and site drainage, sanitary sewer and water service, landscaping, and site furnishings.
