Public Invited To Opening Of Laguna Beach Dog Park

LAGUNA BEACH, CA — A new dog park is opening in Laguna Beach after a long wait, after the City announced a grand opening ceremony for the new Moulton Meadows Park Dog Play Area.

The new dog play area has a variety of new amenities and enhancements for the community, including new benches, new fencing, a modified irrigation system, renovated turf, new landscaping and a new asphalt path.

"Our community is excited for the grand opening of the Moulton Meadows Dog Play Area, a project that creates a permanent space for dog owners to enjoy," Laguna Beach Mayor Sue Kempf told Patch. "We took time to create a space where dogs and their owners can explore, socialize, and have fun. We are grateful for Senator Dave Min’s commitment to our community securing the funding for this project."

A significant contribution to the funding of the Moulton Meadows Dog Play Area was made possible by Senator Dave Min (D-Irvine), who secured $300,000 in state funding for the project.

"Orange County's open spaces are part of what makes our communities an incredible place to live, work, and raise a family. Laguna Beach is no exception, and today, we're doubling the State of California's impact in the City,” said Senator Dave Min. “With the help of $300,000 secured in the 2023-24 State Budget, this investment is a reflection of the strong state and local partnership that helps to meet the needs of Laguna Beach families. Thank you to the City leaders and the many residents, including our very vocal canine community, who made this dog play area a reality for Moulton Meadows."

The ribbon cutting ceremony is scheduled to take place on Thursday, February 29, 2024, at 10 a.m. at Moulton Meadows Park (Balboa Ave & Capistrano Ave) in Laguna Beach.
