Dog park clean-up and operations update

Medicine Hat – The City of Medicine Hat kindly seeks the cooperation and understanding of its residents as we prioritize the cleanliness and functionality of our dog parks.

Currently, our contractors are actively engaged in clean-up operations within our dog parks.

To optimize the services and access times available to our residents and their four-legged companions, our contractors diligently strive to minimize park closures. We acknowledge and appreciate their ongoing efforts to strike a balance between cleanliness and convenience for all park visitors.

As part of their responsibilities, our contractor's staff may occasionally employ vehicles to transport garbage cans and remove garbage bags that can weigh up to 80 lbs. This efficient waste removal process contributes to the maintenance of high hygiene standards in the parks. We kindly urge everyone to exercise caution when around these vehicles and provide them with the necessary space to safely carry out their tasks.

The City of Medicine Hat would like to thank residents for their patience and understanding to maintain the cleanliness of our dog parks.
