The search for development of a dog park in the Eagle River area appears to have ended with a site visit to the now closed former Town of Lincoln-Eagle River landfill a couple of miles south of the city on Loon Lake Road.
The 20 acre former landfill, closed in the mid 1980’s, is completely fenced and is owned by the Town of Lincoln. Any plan would have to protect a number of monitoring wells and gas extraction sites.
Discussion also included the possibility of a sledding hill on the site.
Eagle River city administrator Joe Laux has been active in contacting the DNR for information and inspection of any site plan.
