There are no signs that request owners to pick up and we were wondering if perhaps the thought is that if there are signs then people would use the area more intentionally and it would be an official dog site. Without a sign, people are choosing to use the area and hopefully are considerate enough to keep it clean.

Maybe the county doesn't want to be responsible for designating the area as a dog area. Then maybe there would have to be litter cans for disposal or something like that. Anyway it has always been a curiosity, similar to why there are no North and South signs at the main BV and Morse and Canal intersections which would be most useful, especially for those directionally challenged. But that's another thread.

I personally don't think we need more signs. The Villages is a beautiful place, more signs will only hinder that beauty..
