Company Name

The Downtown CID has created informational brochures that give an overview of the Canine Litter program, 25 "Scoop the Poop" doggie doo bag dispensers placed in highly dog populated areas, free keychain bag dispensers to distribute, a series of posters (for businesses and residential properties to post) and more.

 

Details

According to a recent residential survey downtown has over 2,100 pet owners. It is the personal responsibility of all dog owners and their guardians to pick up after their dogs in all areas of downtown. Our community has come together to motivate downtown dog owners to be responsible and clean up after their dogs. Speak up when you see a lack of responsibility. Come by the CID Guide office at 720 Olive Street for brochures and free keychain bag dispensers to respectfully offer to your friends.

It's Easy!

Bag dispensers have been placed in the public right-of-way or attached to public trash cans within the area of downtown that has the highest dog population. These dispensers are for public use. Click here to view dispenser locations.

It’s the Law

St. Louis City Ordinance number 66384 specifies in section 10.04.310 that every dog owner/guardian shall remove any feces left on any sidewalk, gutter, street, park or other public or private area. Fines can range from $100.00 - $500.00 or up to 90 days in jail for the first offense.

Downtown is our neighborhood. Let's keep it clean, green and healthy.

Canine Litter

• Pollutes our water through storm water runoff
• Spreads disease both to humans and other pets
• Detracts from our neighborhood image

We need you to help keep our neighborhood clean.

To report vandalism or maintenance needs for the bag dispensers, call Kelly Yeager, Downtown St. Louis Community Improvement District, 314-436-6500 x 233.  To obtain complimentary keychain bag dispenser refills, come to 720 Olive Street, Room 125.
