The Duxbury Canine Committee will meet at 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 12, at the Senior Center to hear public comments on dog related issues.  The committee was appointed by the Town Manager to make recommendations to the Selectmen concerning complaints about dogs not being adequately controlled and dog waste not being picked up in Duxbury public parks and lands.  Some of the approaches being considered include improved signs, an awareness campaign, increased enforcement presence, dog waste bag dispensers and receptacles at problem areas, and changes to bylaws that would, among other things, clarify enforcement authority and penalties and require droppings to be removed from conservation lands (as is the case for other Town property).  Those interested in dog control issues are urged to attend this or other Canine Committee meetings at the Senior Center (usually 8 a.m. on the first Wednesday of each month).
