BK:00026 PG - 0556 <br />LEE COUNTY <br />Committed Today for a Better Tomorrow <br />May 23, 2014 <br />Radio Systems Corp. <br />10427 PetSafe Way <br />Knoxville, TN 37932 <br />Re: Land for Off -Leash Dog Park <br />Dear PetSafe Bark for Your Park Committee, <br />The Lee County Parks and Recreation Department is currently working with the County and <br />City of Sanford to construct an off -leash dog park at the O. T. Sloan Park located at 1550 <br />Bragg Street, Sanford, North Carolina. The 42 acre park is owned by Lee County. The Lee <br />County Board of Commissioners officially endorsed the dog park concept at their July 15, 2013 <br />meeting, (Minutes attached). The shaded area designated for the dog park is next to a large <br />parking area, restrooms, tennis courts, and a shelter. The park also houses two pools, <br />bathhouse, an open picnic area, ball fields, a children's playground area, a disc golf course, <br />and the Boys and Girls Club. <br />Lee County citizens are very excited about the proposed off -leash dog park as this is <br />something dog lovers have requested for quite some time. Citizens have been working hard <br />to raise funds for the dog park. <br />Please accept this letter of support from the County verifying there is land available for the <br />proposed off -leash dog park. <br />Sincerely, <br />Charles T. Parks, Chairman <br />Lee County Board of Commissioners <br />
