Park official says dog owners need play area
Friday, Jan. 28, 2000 | 9:58 a.m.
Jeff Mann with Reno Parks and Recreation said dogs running loose in parks and leaving waste where people walk or jog is becoming a problem in the city.
One solution is to give dogs their own space, he said.
Mann has proposed a one-acre area at Whitaker Park in northwest Reno be fenced off for an off-leash dog park.
He also wants to provide plastic disposable bags at all Reno parks to encourage owners to pick up after their dogs.
The proposal has been endorsed by a citizen's advisory board.
