Open Space Advisory Board <br />Informational Item 5: Staff Updates Continued <br />December 14, 2022 <br />Page 3 of 3 <br />Resource Protection: <br />15. Rangers assisted Parks maintenance staff with reopening the DOLA and <br />sweeping it for construction debris. Reopening the DOLA seems to have <br />decreased off -leash violations on Davidson Mesa. <br />16. Rangers have begun patrolling for holiday decorations on City -owned lands. <br />Current policy for first-time violations is to issue a courtesy notice and <br />require residents to remove the illegal decorations within 72 hours. <br />17. Rangers have noted an increase in uncooperative contacts, especially for <br />off -leash dog written warnings. Staff are working internally and with the <br />Police Department to identify approaches to address this issue. <br />18. Rangers continue to observe an increase in contacts, compared to previous <br />years, with leash law repeat offenders, resulting in penalty assessments or <br />summonses. <br />Education/Volunteer: <br />19.
