Public Space Protection Orders for dogs and for anti-social behaviour

The council propose to amend and extend the existing Public Space Protection Orders (PSPOs) for dogs and for anti-social behaviour related to street drinking. As part of the proposed changes we are seeking your views.

PSPOs are an effective way of dealing with persistent anti-social activity by individuals or groups that is having a detrimental effect on the quality of life of those in the local area. The maximum penalty for failure to comply with a PSPO is a £1000 fine.

Under the terms of the Anti-social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014, the current orders will expire on 19 October 2020. We propose that the PSPOs are amended and extended in revised forms for a further three years, until 19 October 2023.
