Dog park in Livermore closes for weeks due to glass shards

(KRON) — A dog park in Livermore has been shut down due to glass shards that were recently found, according to the Livermore Area Recreation and Park District (LARPD). May Nissen Dog Park is closed for soil repairs and turf renovation.

A community member notified LARPD about the glass shards last week, which included other debris. More debris was found earlier this week as LARPD determined a park closure was necessary.

The park will be closed for approximately three to four weeks, officials said. During that time, crews will repair the turf and inspect the soil to ensure they meet safety standards.

In the meantime, officials recommend dog owners and other community members visit other dog parks in the area. May Nissen Dog Park is located at 685 Rincon Ave.
