We have collectively established a new organization called “Friends of the Chelmsford Dog Park” (FCDP), which has the sole mission of working with the Town of Chelmsford to develop, maintain, and otherwise care for the Chelmsford Dog Park. Effective January 1, 2020, the CDA is handing off the responsibility for the Chelmsford Dog Park to the FCDP while the CDA focuses on community events, outreach, support, and education.

Minutes – Chelmsford Dog Association Meeting
Monday May 8, 2013 7:00PM
Chelmsford Police Dept. Community Room, 2 Olde North Rd. Chelmsford
Please thank Anna B. for getting me off my butt to tend to my blog. There are many things happening around Town (as always). Some days I feel like a squirrel and all the nuts are across the busy street.
But back to Anna’s inquiry…”so how’s the Dog Park Plan coming?”
After four years of looking at multiple sites all over Town, I am happy to report that at this spring’s Town Meeting, Warrant Article 23 will seek to designate a two acre area of 54 Richardson Rd. for use as a Dog Park.
In spite of Mother Nature’s latest shenanigans, the Chelmsford Dog Association is preparing for Spring.
First up, is the Chelmsford Spring Town Meeting, which starts on April 29. The Spring Town Meeting Warrant is now signed by the Board of Selectmen. Article 23 will designate an area of 54 Richardson Rd to be used as a dog park. Article 29 will allow off-leash dogs in an area designated by the Town. The Chelmsford Dog Association is asking supporters for a dog park in Chelmsford to let their Town Meeting Representatives know that having a public dog park is a desired project, and to ask them to vote in favor of these two articles. Once these steps are complete, the group can finally work on building the park. They’ll be asking for lots of help then. Thanks to all of you for getting the word out. Please feel free to ask questions-if I don’t know, I’ll find out! Thank you-on behalf of the Chelmsford Dog Association.
