SMC County Parks Dog Management Committee is comprised of ten community members who advise the Parks Commission as it seeks to update and clarify dog management policies in County Parks. 

In addition to recommending updates to the County ordinances and identifying potential dog recreation opportunities, the Committee is expected to outline criteria to be used in identifying parks, places or trails best suited for dog activity and parameters for specific pilot areas where dog management will be allowed and carefully monitored to determine effectiveness.  Topics of enforcement, budget, owner education, and park infrastructure will also be on the Committee’s agenda.

The monthly Committee meetings (Sept 2016 – Aug 2017) are at 2pm in Redwood City and are open to the public.  The County webpage for this issue has more info on committee members, meeting dates, location, agendas and minutes.
