Between our neighborhood and Charlotte, there is a small open area near the multi-modal path where some people congregate and have their dogs off leash, but I heard the neighbors have complained and it will be fenced off.

That's life in TV.
I think you are right about it being fenced off soon. I don't think anyone should "expect" to be able to let their dogs run loose. There are plenty of dog parks in TV and surrounds. And there's lots of traffic in TV that might accidentally injure your off-leash dog if it isn't in a dog park. It's just not good stewardship of the dog, among other things, IMO.
