Wyckoff Dogs Get the Go-Ahead

The Township Committee approved a pilot program to let residents walk their dogs in some parks

The Wyckoff Township Committee approved a pilot program that will allow Wyckoff residents to walk their dogs on a leash in portions of Community Park and the Larkin House property at their meeting Tuesday night.

The pilot program will last until the end of the year, at which point the committee will decide whether or not to make the change permanent. Dogs will not be allowed on the fields of Community Park and owners will have to clean up after their pets.

"I think it's a wonderful opportunity for residents to be able to enjoy the park outside of the sports world," Mayor Kevin Rooney said.
