Community E-lert® is a registered trademark of the City of Medina Police Department. This announcement is provided as a public service to residents of Medina and Hunts Point. It is our intention to distribute these E-lerts following an occurrence or condition that may have public safety or community well-being implications.
A reminder that the City of Medina updated the ordinance for rules regarding on/off-leash dogs in Medina Park.
On-Leash Area West Side of the Park All dogs must be on a leash, tether, or chain not to exceed eight feet in length when on the west side of the park. So the biggest change is that the west side of the park is on-leash all year round.
Off-Leash Area Dogs in the off-leash area on the east side of the park are required to be within positive voice control of their owner or handler and must respond promptly to the commands of the owner or handler.
Also, please remember, that no more than two dogs are allowed in the park at any time and dogs are not permitted in the ponds. You can review all park rules at Medina Municipal Code 12.24 Public Parks at https://www.codepublishing.com/WA/Medina/
“Violations of these rules will constitute a Class 1 Civil Infraction with a current maximum penalty of $250.00 (RCW 7.80.120).)” And remember EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS COMMITTEE MEETING today, Tues April 20, 2021 04:00 - 5:30 PM https://zoom.us/j/96616938988?pwd=L2tMbzF6NXpjeVp6bU5UVWI0NlNXUT09 ID: 966 1693 8988
