These full green poop bags are tossed ALL over town, and are being picked up by everyone EXCEPT the person who is literally throwing them up banks, down banks, into trees, and leaving them all over Happy Valley and throughout our neighbourhoods.

Disgusting. I detest picking up dog poop but I do it every day. It's part of dog ownership!
Yes it is, Jen - I don't understand why it is picked up, but not put into trash cans. These were very close to the can at the end of the reservoir, but all thrown over the banks...out of sight, out of mind, I guess.
Up at the disc golf course (Blackjack), garbage is pack it in, pack it out. It's all volunteer work to keep the course playable, and there is no garbage service. Looking after your own waste seems to make the most sense, it's easy, cheap and nobody has to pick up after people like they were children. The one exception is that there is a can for refundable containers; they are taken to the gulch and the money is used for club events. A big sign is above the can, "bottles and cans only". There is obviously a literacy problem because some kind souls don't comprehend the complicated signage and leave those green bags full of dog poop in the refundables can. The sense of entitlement that results in that behaviour boggles the mind.
