The leash because the dogs do we have signage actually to let people know what is the rule and regulation of the park?

We have so much signage, and our deputy commissioner Mark Folk oversees our sign shop, and we have spent so much time on signage in our parks and making sure that it's clear where people where their dogs can and can't be off leash.
1:52:28
It's on our rule sign.
