 Consultation for proposed green spaces PSPO
We are seeking your views on whether we should introduce a new Public Space Protection Order (PSPO) on council-owned land to protect our green spaces, countryside sites and riverside sites against:

- Unauthorised moorings along the river

This survey is open until 11 June 2023.
