<br /> <br /> <br /> <br />April 1, 2015 <br /> <br />Dear Golden Gardens Park in-water dog trainer, <br /> <br />Your application for an in-water dog training permit for 2015 has been approved. Your permit is valid for a <br />portion of this year’s training period from April 10 to October 31 July 1 because the dog licenses expire for <br />both Molly and Cora on July 1, 2015; and Cora’s rabies vaccine expires July 30, 2015. <br /> <br />If you wish to continue with in-water dog training for the remainder of the 2015 season, please provided <br />updated license and rabies vaccine information and an updated permit will be processed. <br /> <br />Please read this letter and the enclosed materials to make sure you understand the requirements and limits of <br />the program. We appreciate your continued consideration for other park users you may encounter, such as <br />pedestrians or bicyclists, and the wildlife and habitat this wonderful park supports, such as waterfowl and <br />western pond turtles. <br /> <br />Only vehicles with access permits from Parks and Open Space are allowed within the park boundary. The <br />permit must be displayed on the vehicle dashboard so it is visible at all times when the vehicle is inside the <br />park boundary. POS or City of Eugene Police Department staff may ask parties not displaying a valid permit to <br />cease training activities and remove vehicles from the park. <br /> <br />The north gate along the Clear Lake Road access site shall be kept locked at all times except when entering or <br />exiting the park. The lock combination for the access site is 4-1-1-5 and entry is currently available. Please <br />contact John Clark at 541-682-4826 if you experience any difficulty accessing the gate with the combination. <br />Monday through Friday permitted parking is limited to the road between the North and Main ponds inside the <br />designated jogging path, as shown on the attached map in orange, and parking on these days will be more <br />strictly monitored. On Saturday and Sunday, permitted parking is limited to these two locations: (1) along the <br />road north of the walking/jogging path at the north end of the ponds and (2) on Jessen Street. Vehicles must <br />be attended at all times. Failure to comply with these parking requirements may result in a vehicle access <br />permit being revoked. Please contact Clara Matsler at 541-682-4908, if you have questions or concerns about <br />the designated parking area. <br />Direct access to the ponds for dog training activities is limited to the Main Pond and North Pond, as shown on <br />the attached map. No more than two dogs per trainer are allowed to be active in the ponds at any given time. <br />In-water dog training activities are allowed from April 10 through October 31, daily from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. <br />Please note limited vehicle parking on Saturdays and Sundays as referenced above. Dog training in the fields <br />away from the ponds is allowed only with prior written permission from lease-holders of those fields. Please <br /> <br /> <br />
