Last chance to have your say on Exmouth beach annual dog ban changes
By Will Goddard 16th Nov 2022
A public consultation on changes to annual dog bans for beaches in East Devon is set to close this Sunday (20 November).
The current ban excludes dogs from the majority of Exmouth beach from 1 May to 30 September each year.
The changes include:
- Removing the requirement to keep dogs on leads while on or next to a public highway (but dogs must be kept on a lead along Exmouth Esplanade);
- Allowing people to walk dogs in the early morning and late evening during the dog ban period on East Devon beaches at Exmouth, Budleigh Salterton, Sidmouth, Beer and Seaton. The ban would only apply between 9am and 6pm;
- Raising the fixed penalty notice fine for breaching a PSPO from £80 to £100.
How can I tell the council my opinion?
To comment on the proposed changes, you can email [email protected] or write to Environmental Health, East Devon District Council, Blackdown House, Border Road, Heathpark Industrial Estate, Honiton, EX14 1EJ.
