All animals are to be kept under restraint, licensed or unlicensed (Ordinance #374). Animals are to be held in leash and under control of the owner or attendant of such animals. The animals' owners are responsible for removing any defecation on properties other than their own, and are subject to fines up to $300.00 if they do not comply. Be kind and remember your neighbors and friends who also like to walk along the streets, sidewalks and in the parks. An Animal Enforcement Ordinance #419 and an agreement with the City of Johnstown Animal Enforcement Officer is in effect.

 

Remember you must carry clean-up equipment when you are walking your dog. According to Ordinance #374 and #419,

  • No person shall permit their dog to run at large upon public places, streets, alleys, sidewalks, or private property of others.
  • Dogs must be restrained with a leash not exceeding 6 feet in length at all times while on public places.
  • No person shall allow their animal to defecate on said properties without immediate cleanup, removal and proper disposal of feces.
Violaters are subject to fines and penalties.
