As long as you don’t consider “district owned” the part of lawns that the property owners pay and look after as their front lawn. They don’t do it so you can use it as a latrine for your dog. But if you mean dog parks etc I completely agree.

Personally, the easiest thing for me and my dogs with our fenced in yard, was a large sand box where the dogs were trained to go. I had a scooper and the sand could be changed too. I initially trained the dogs by hiding a little treat in the area which they could have after they did the “right” thing. Maybe the gravel part can be changed to sand?
