Residents, businesses and community groups are being invited to give their views on proposed changes to public space protection orders.
The orders provide East Riding of Yorkshire Council with legal tools to reduce antisocial behaviour in the East Riding.
The East Riding contains 168 public space protection orders, for every parish in the region, which can cover issues such as dog exclusion areas, no drinking zones, gating orders, off road motorcycles, camping related activity, and playing music from any device as to cause a nuisance.
Those who violate protection orders may receive a £75 fixed penalty notice, or a fine of up to £1,000 following a summary conviction.
By law, the council is required to review these orders every three years and as part of the current review, members of the public are being invited to share their views.
Councillor Lyn Healing, East Riding of Yorkshire Council cabinet member for communities and public protection said:
“We are dedicated to maintaining the East Riding as a good place to live, and public space protection orders play a key role in addressing antisocial behaviour. I encourage all residents to share their views and help protect our welcoming and safe public spaces.”
The consultation will run from Monday 9 June and will close on Friday 11 July and can be completed at https://www.eastriding.gov.uk/living/crime-and-community-safety/anti-social-behaviour/
