The Permittee is dedicated to celebrating, supporting, and providing information on bully breeds. This Event provides a place for the owners to meet with other like-minded individuals and offers a platform to discuss the health and needs specific on different types of bully breeds. The Event will allow this community to celebrate their dog, provide a connection to other bully-breed families, and network among each other. This Event will allow the Permittee to showcase different types of bully breeds, build community, and celebrate together. It is the third year the Permittee is hosting this event with the Department.
This recommended Permit aligns with the County and Chief Executive Officer’s goals and objectives to operate in a fiscally-responsible and business-like manner by allowing the Department to leverage its amenities and land to raise revenue to support park maintenance and development.
