docdigit Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 I'm curious if I need to approach the Parks Commissioner or someone in my area concerning the placement of cache (no, I'm not quite ready yet, but I'm getting there...I have these five, almost brand new .50 cal cans sitting here...) in a city or county park. Do you need permission or is okay to just go ahead because they are considered public property? Thanks, Doc Quote Link to comment
+KoosKoos Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 It depends on where you are. In our area, the city has no formal geocaching policy, but is aware of the activity and just doesn't regulate it. Our county parks, while they'll allow it, do require approval of the site by the area land manager. I'd check around for a local caching group or ask some of the local hiders if there are any "regulations" you should be aware of. Quote Link to comment
+wandererrob Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 If in doubt, it's always better to ask them. At the very least they will then be aware of it's presence even if formal permission isn't really necessary. Quote Link to comment

+JDandDD Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 Check online for your town, city, county etc. Where I live I have been able to get the usage answers to all of the spots I've placed caches that way. Your area might be as good. JDandDD Quote Link to comment
