This page sets out the Public Space Protection Orders (PSPOs) regarding how dogs' behaviour is regulated in parks and open spaces in and around Redhill. Where a person responsible for a dog does not follow the requirements of the PSPO/s, the council may issue them with a fixed penalty notice of £80 or, ultimately they may be prosecuted with a maximum £1,000 penalty on conviction.
