There are five signs telling dog walkers and owners to pick up poop in the block of Forest Avenue along Austin Gardens, the Nineteenth Century Club and the newish high-rise residential builders. Yet the other day there was poop a mere few feet from the southernmost sign.
Come on, dog owners, pick it up!
Soon there will be more people enjoying the park, including theater-goers headed for the production on the stage, under construction already. Over-55 singers practicing for the next Sounds Good performance will be going to the Nineteenth Century Club for rehearsals.
We can’t let that block continue to look as neglected as it does.
So come on, dog owners, pick up the poop! Then the village can take down the signs and try to revive or replace the dried-up grass.
