I prefer to BYOBag myself.? Cheaper and you have it right where you need it, in your pocket.? I never leave home without them.?

Hi all,  I was thinking it would be nice to have "pet stations" around  town 
to dispose of pet waste when walking your dog.  Would any of the dog  
walker/owners be interested in contributing to acquiring a couple of  stations.  
I 
thought perhaps we could start with one at the entrance to the  park, then the 
next one could be at town center, then one at the Mansion.   We could buy them 
one at  time.  Perhaps one a year.  I checked  on the costs and for a complete 
station with bag dispenser, steel waste  receptacle, pet sign, Lid for 
receptacle,  mounting post, and bags would  cost $329.  If we had 20 pet owners 
interested it could cost less than $20  for our first station.  Maybe we could 
do 
them at 6 month intervals.   We would probably need to get permission and 
cooperation from the town, but I  would like to know if there is an interest 
before 
I pursue that.
Please let me know if you are interested in this project.
ps.  college park has one if you care to see what it would look  like.
