Olivette has designated 80 acres within the City to parks and recreation. As a result, Olivette offers its residents some of the finest parks in the metropolitan area. Each of the City's five parks is clean, safe and well equipped.
The playgrounds are geared to both preschool and elementary school children.
Landscaping and park facilities in Olivette are second to none.
In addition, the City maintains its parks meticulously. The City repairs or replaces broken fixtures almost immediately. Olivette's year-around parks crew works diligently to keep the parks and equipment in top condition. Park planning, landscaping and grounds maintenance are a 12-month process in Olivette.
2013 OLIVETTE DOG PARK REGISTRATION OPEN
The Olivette Parks & Recreation Commission and the City of Olivette have created a dog park in Irv Zeid Citizens Park. The park will be available to any Olivette resident or non-resident who pays the fee, follows the posted rules and has proof of a current dog license* (in their municipality). The fee will be used to help keep the space clean and enjoyable for our four legged friends. The park is accessible from dawn to dusk 7 days a week and will be dog-owner monitored. The Olivette Parks Department is still in the process of adding water to the area and will be adding a small dog paddock in early 2013.
At this time, we are accepting 2013 Dog Park membership applications. Each dog that is registered will be given a tag to identify that they are allowed access to the area. We have attached a 2013 application with this letter. Applications should be turned in to the Olivette Parks Department at 9723 Grandview Drive or City Hall at 9473 Olive Boulevard.
For current members, each year you will be required to complete a new application to submit along with the fees. The access code to the gate will be changed on February 1, 2013.
We are encouraging any questions or feedback to be directed to the Olivette Parks & Recreation Department at (314) 991-1249 or opr@olivettemo.com.
