Lexington Dog Owners Make Some Noise About Willards Woods
The Lexington Minuteman was inundated with letters this week about the upcoming Feb. 23, Conservation Commission hearing about whether dogs should be leashed at Willard's Woods. There were too many letters to publish
Excerpts from the letters were published online by the Lexington Minuteman: "Residents sound off over dog leash proposal."
The Lexington Conservation Commission is considering enacting "new regulations that could limit off-leash areas at Willards Woods or ban the practice altogether," according to an article in in the Boston Globe today ("Lexington considers curbs on dog owners" by Brock Parker).
According to the Lexington Code ยง 9-2A, dogs must be "in the immediate restraint and control of some person by means of a leash or by effective command".
