Regarding the recent discussions on the Elkridge Crossing Facebook group related to dog poop offenders, some members of the community have questioned whether this policy should be adopted at our scheduled annual meeting on January 4, 2024 by the board. The board would like to take this up to the community to decide what the majority of owners would like to do. The details for the proposed policy as well as the FAQ can be viewed at the link below. Once you have reviewed the information, please select either yes or no whether you support the adoption of the policy. The board requires 51% of owners in the community to select no in order to terminate the policy from the agenda. If 51% is not achieved, then the policy would remain on the agenda for the board to vote on. If the policy is voted against and is dropped from the agenda, the board will vote on the adoption of the fines. Without the Dog DNA Registration policy, in order for fines to be issued to the offender, photo or video proof needs to be available putting the burden of proof on the community to actively help catch the offenders. Related to the dog waste stations, more will be installed as the community grows. However, one of the stations has over 20 piles of poop within 50 feet. There are over 45 piles of dog waste in the community which haven’t been picked up as of 12/7/2023.
