North Somerset councillors outlined areas which will be deemed no dog zones in the district as it drew up a list of Public Space Protection Orders (PSPOs) based on more than 500 public responses.
Acts which will be considered a breach of PSPOs as of April now include failing to stop playing music or instruments when asked to do so and using or driving a vehicle in a manner likely to cause alarm, harassment, distress or a public nuisance .
The list of PSPOs was agreed upon by the council at its latest executive meeting on February 11, with hopes to make North Somerset a more welcoming space - though the proposal that aggressive begging should be considered a PSPO will be subject to further consultation.
