There is a push to kick dogs out of a Yorktown park.
Residents say that some dog owners are not curbing their pets at the Jack Devito Veterans Memorial Field and Track.
The town uses the fields for sports, concerts and movie nights. Officials say that dogs are allowed to be at the track and field, but there is a sign posted telling people to clean up after their dogs.
A petition has been drawn to ban all dogs from the park so locals don't have to watch their step.
The Yorktown Town Board is expected to hold a public hearing on the issue in September.
