North Somerset Council Dog Control Order Consultation | your views Introduction Throughout June we asked you what you thought of new Dog Control Order proposals. The proposals were designed to replace existing and outdated by-laws (in many cases not changing their current status) and in conjunction with the Clean Neighbourhoods and Environment Act 2005. Prior to the consultation beginning, our Environmental Protection Officers met with local Town and Parish Councils to discuss what measures they would like to be suggested which is reflected in the proposals that were put forward. Areas involved Banwell, Recreation Grounds Portbury, Ponds Banwell, Scout Hut and Children’s Centre Portishead, Brampton Way Play Area Bleadon, Allotments Portishead, Marina Bleadon, Village Cross Area Redhill, Christchurch Churchyard Cleeve, King George V Playing Field Weston-super-Mare, St Georges Village Play Clevedon, Coleridge Vale Playing Fields Area Clevedon, Promenade Tickenham, Village Hall Field Felton, Vee Lane Playing Fields Weston-super-Mare, Clarence Park West Hutton, Phippen Park Weston-super-Mare, Promenade Locking, Village Allotments Winscombe, Longfield RFC Nailsea, Engine Lane Winscombe, War Memorial Recreation Ground Nailsea, Fryth Way Wrington, Glebe Field Nailsea, Greenfield Crescent Nailsea, Grove Playing Fields Your opinion In total 606 individual responses were received regarding the consultation. As each respondent could comment on more than one dog control order, there were 826 responses over all. Responses were captured through an online survey as well as through letters, emails, telephone calls, eConsult and petitions. To all that responded – thank you. Your comments will be taken into consideration when a decision is made later this year as to whether to implement the orders or make modifications.

Breakdown of results This shows usage of the park/ field (i.e. from the view point of dog walkers, commuters, etc) alongside whether the participant agreed or disagreed. Please note when interpreting these results that not all the participants entered what their interest in the area was therefore these breakdowns are not reflective of the entire response.
