It is obvious that some pet owners are not cleaningup after their dogs. Probably one of the most concentratedareas of feces is along the south end of the community, along thereservoir, but there are many others too. In some places it lookslike a dog run. It is apparent that dogs are being allowed to run atlarge and the waste is not being cleaned up by the owner. Thereare other areas as well. All pet owners are advised that the Cityof Littleton has a leash law and waste removal ordinance.In addition, the Association also has rules governingthese same ordinances.Efforts to reduce the unsightly, smelly andunhealthy problem rests with all residents. For themost expedient action, residents are urged to contactand file a complaint with the city of LittletonAnimal Control at 303-794-1551 when they observe pet ownersthat do not pick-up after their pet and/or allow them to run atlarge.Another option is to file a written and signed complaint(photo’s are helpful too) with the Association. However, theprocess can take as much as 75 days before penalties can beimposed. The complainant must provide the date, time, location,description of the dog, alleged violation and address of where thedog owner resides.
