Charmar is owned by Delaware County Preservation Parks, not Genoa Township. Similarly, Hoover Reservoir and surrounding parkland is owned by the City of Columbus and portions of Alum Creek State Park are managed by Ohio Department of Natural Resources.

Fishing at Hilmar Park and Center Green Park does not require a license; however these ponds are catch and release only. 

Smoke can impact the health of fellow park users, especially the developing lungs of children. For this reason, smoking is not permitted. 

• Dogs must be kept under reasonable control on and off of the owner's property, including within Township park property. Reasonable control may be maintained with a leash or other means as described in Ohio Revised Code. 
• Pick up any waste your pet leaves behind. Bags are provided within most Genoa Township parks.
• If a dog, barking for more than 15 minutes, becomes a nuisance to neighbors a police officer may be dispatched. See Barking Dog Resolution.
• Register dogs annually with the Delaware County Auditor.

Park hours are from dawn to dusk. 

Advanced reservations are not accepted. Use of athletic fields are first-come, first-served.

Removal of dying street trees located within the Township right of way will be completed by the Maintenance Department upon request using the Right of Way Permit application; however, grinding of the stump is not provided.

The Township does not replace street trees. If the approved neighborhood development plan specified street trees would be planted, property owners are expected to plant a replacement. 

The Township maintains a list of recommended tree species. Check with the Development and Zoning Department and your homeowner's association (if applicable) to see if any further rules or restrictions apply.

For the safety of all users, no motorized vehicles are allowed on park trails with the exception of police and maintenance vehicles.
