In Memorial Park, any dog not leashed must be under the control of its owner or custodian by verbal command, remote controlled electronic device or other means actually sufficient to control the dog. Any dog present in Memorial Park and more than 90 feet from its owner or custodian (unless confined to its owner’s or custodian’s motor vehicle) shall be in violation of town ordinance.

2.  Dogs are NOT ALLOWED in Town Park.

3.  Owners are required to “pick-up” after their dogs and discard excrement in acceptable receptacle.
