Report of the Strategic Director of Regeneration and Environment

Recommendations:

1.    That approval be given to carry out a consultation in relation to a new Town Centre Public Spaces Protection Order.

2.    That approval be given to carry out a consultation in relation to a Borough wide Public Spaces Protection Order specifically dealing with dog fouling.

Consideration was given to a report which proposed to undertake consultation to establish views in relation to Public Spaces Protection Orders and support a future decision about these Public Spaces Protection Orders.

It was reported that the current Town Centre Public Spaces Protection Order and the transitioned borough-wide dog fouling Public Spaces Protection Order expire in September and October 2020 respectively. As part of the consultation, views would be sought about the conditions that might be included within both Orders at the same time.

It was noted that the report had been considered by the Overview and Scrutiny Management Board at its meeting on 15 July 2020 where Members had supported the proposed actions.

Resolved:-

1.    That approval be given to carry out a consultation in relation to a new Town Centre Public Spaces Protection Order.

2.    That approval be given to carry out a consultation in relation to a Borough wide Public Spaces Protection Order specifically dealing with dog fouling.
