Description
Due to all of the snow plowing this season, a fence was damaged fairly severely on my property that is located about 4-5 feet back from the street. I am concerned that my dog can now escape my yard. Thanks for your consideration.

What type of fence do you have? Certain fences we can repair in house, others we ask that you file a claim and repair privately. Any repairs that the Town can make may be delayed due to the frost levels this year, so you may have to look into a temporary fix for keeping your dog in your yard.
Thank you

Do you have any recommendations for a temporary fix? I am not the handiest person, would like to ensure that my active and curious dog remains on the right side of the fence.
Thanks!

The least of ones worries regarding a runway dog is a heartbroken owner. Run away dogs can cause a multitude of sever issues including: spreading of disease, traffic issues while roaming the streets, dropping unsanitary feces in public areas, destruction of neighboring properties, violent bodily harm to innocent pedestrians, etc.
To the town of Framingham, please repair this fence prior to all the snow melting eliminating the possibility of sever consequences to tax paying citizens of Framingham.

I apologize for the delay and did not realize that the additional comments were coming from another user. For a chain link fence, the best way to go about a repair is to get a quote from a private company and file a claim for the damages with the Town Managers office. You can find the information on filing a claim and the form here: http://www.framinghamma.gov/1430/Insurance-Claims
Thank you for your patience
