Dog Owners are Responsible for Their Pets

            The City Council is considering several options for violators of the dog-at-large and leash law ordinances.  Options include pet owner education, stringent licensing efforts, minimum and mandatory penalties for violations, and clarifying ordinances as necessary.  Currently, violators may receive a fine up to $750 and even jail time. The police department and justice court have been asked to increase their efforts address this issue. 

            Dog licensing fees are now $10 annually for spayed and neutered animals and $50 for non-spayed and neutered animals.

            The responsibility to “clean up” after dogs is the responsibility of the owner.  We want to keep your parks and public areas clean an inviting.

Hi, I will be in need of a new photo to put in the upper left hand corner of the website to replace the summer solstice photo.  If you have a stunning photo you think might fit into this aspect ratio please send it to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .  I would also like to rotate out some of the other photos on the site, if you have any photos that would serve that purpose please submit those as well.  If I use your photo I would be glad to acknowlege your name in the tooltip of the photo.  This website belongs to the residents of Parowan, I appreciate your support.
