  • Ordinance Change – Animals to be Leashed in Parks & on Trails

With the recommendation from the Park, Recreation and Forestry Committee, the Town Board of Supervisors recently unanimously voted to change the ordinance regarding domesticated animals in parks.  “Domesticated animals are allowed in parks or trails under the immediate control of a person by means of a leash, no longer than 6’ in length.”  Pet owners, please note and abide by this new ordinance change.  Additionally, animals are prohibited in fenced athletic fields and/or near playground areas.  (This part of the ordinance has not changed.)

Thank you for being responsible pet owners and we hope you enjoy our parks and trails.
