Consideration of new off-leash areas is ongoing, though any proposal must be assessed according to the official "Final Dog Policy." If you would like to submit a proposal for a DPA in your area or call in maintenance for an already existing one, send your request in writing to:

The San Francisco Recreation & Park Department
Attn: General Manager
501 Stanyan Street
San Francisco, CA 94117.
