FOLLOWUP: Supporters of Morgan Junction Park skatedot say date’s set for meeting, and ask for your support

The future Morgan Junction Park Addition site – north of the current park – is now open to the community as an open grassy spot, after Seattle Parks removed the fencing that’s been protecting the site while the grass grew. Meantime the Morgan Junction All-Wheels Association, which has been advocating for a “skatedot” – sort of a mini skatepark – at the site is gathering support to ensure it stays in the project. Here’s the design – with the “skatedot” actually incorporated into the original park site – as shown at the Morgan Community Association gathering two weeks ago:

Next step, according to MJAWA, is a community meeting to present the current design, and though it hasn’t yet been formally announced by Seattle Parks, they’re asking supporters to save the date for 5:30 pm May 13 at The Kenney (7125 Fauntleroy Way SW)

Hoping to get some form of a skatepark approved.

it is important that people don’t ruin the park by letting their dogs use it as a dog park

It would be great if one or more of the local dog owners that use the park as pet relief area could sponsor a PooGooder station here. Dog and owners visiting the park is great, but it really sucks when poop in the grass ruins somebodies day. https://poogooder.com/

I have the same concerns. Look at Fairmount park which is a public school. Has no dog allowed signs everywhere and yet people use it as a dog park and pet waste relief area. Despicable.
