Corning Municipal Code Ch. 7.08 Animals in City Parks

The city council of the city of Corning finds that at such time as athletic contests are being conducted at the Yost City Park and Estil C. Clark City Park, the presence of animals on park grounds are detrimental to the health, safety and welfare of persons attending or participating in such contests, in that there is a danger to such persons of being bitten or otherwise injured. For such reasons of health, safety and welfare, the city council of the city of Corning adopts this chapter to the Corning Municipal Code.

(Ord. 390 §1(part), 1982: Ord. 371 §1(part), 1981).

It is unlawful for any person to have possession and control of any dog or horse within the area of Yost City Park or Estil C. Clark City Park at such time as any athletic contest is being conducted at either park. This provision shall apply whether the animal is on a leash, if a dog, or is restrained by being tied to any fixed object or otherwise. Animals which are within the park area at such time as athletic contests are being conducted shall be impounded in the same manner as animals running at large.

(Ord. 390 §l(part), 1982: Ord. 371 §1 (part), 1981).

Violation of this chapter shall be an infraction and punishable as such.
