Keep Paso Robles’ Downtown City Park free of dog poop

Downtown City Park in Paso Robles is getting a much-needed update. It’s time to enforce the no dogs rule, which has been ignored by everyone.

Signage is inadequate, and dog owners persist in bringing their dogs to the park with the expected results: deposits that, even when tended to by owners, leave residue that kids/adults/whomever deal with while sitting, reclining or playing in the park. It’s disgusting and needs to result in stiff fines for those who persist.

Help keep the parks clean and free from dog deposits.
