The revised, draft order will be consulted on before being sent to the Executive for the final sign off
North Northamptonshire Council is currently working on the revision of a Public Space Protection Order for dog control across North Northants following a consultation earlier this year. The results of the consultation have informed the development of the draft PSPO, and the council is now seeking views on the revised version before it is sent for approval to the Executive later in 2023.
Based on feedback received, some changes have been made to the draft PSPO. These include the proposed addition of certain public spaces, clarifying that dog owners must not only pick up dog faeces but also dispose of it appropriately. Additionally, in areas where dogs are required to be kept on a lead, the lead must be of a fixed length not exceeding two metres. The revised draught PSPO is now open for consultation until September 28, 2023.
Cllr David Brackenbury, the council’s Executive Member for Growth and Regeneration, added: “As with the first consultation, it is important that everyone has their say on whether they agree or disagree with the proposed PSPO. This will mean that we can have a PSPO which is fit for purpose and meets the need for the whole of North Northants.”
