Dogs to be on leads or dogs not allowed at all? If either or those how will it be enforced? Who will enforce it? Who will pay for the enforcer(s) to enforce it? How much will it cost to enable the enforcer(s) to enforce it? etc etc. Or will there just be signs telling people of the lead requirement/dog ban? Loads of holidaymakers walk along the sea wall from the Warren with kids and dogs.  ...

What a knee jerk reaction. There are laws in place on the lawn regarding dogs on leads. Just enforce it. Lots of holiday makers have picnics on the lawn with their dogs on leads. Banning dogs would not have stopped the killing of the swan. Those people flout the laws openly, but no one enforces it. This would put me off as a tourist if I couldn't walk my dog sensibly on the Lawn.  There are few ...

Hopefully dogs will be banned from the Lawn which, given the recent attack on our Swans, will surely have the support of most people in the town? Hopefully, anyway.

A lot of good thoughts have been collated there. It seems that the Working Group are doing a good job so far - fair play to them.

Agreed I think there's a push for the park which I'd rather there wasn't as we already have one in Manor Park/gardens, but if there has to be one then outside the tourist and toilets area would be best of a bad job. Also I would tend to support dogs on leads in the lawn area, it isn't really that sort of area for having dogs bounding about at will, there are other areas for that and Manor ...

Something else that won't be enforced.  Don't particularly agree with either of those but I have the feeling there's a push for the play park whether it's wanted or not.  I'm sure I'll be proved wrong when Dawlish is flooded with parents wanting to play and shop.

It has come to my attention from a reliable source that Dawlish Council are in early talks about banning dogs from the Dawlish lawn area. Also they are in early talks about where the new play park is going to be located. That location is going to be outside the tourist and toilets area where all the scrubbery and trees are. As I said this is only being considered.  In my opinion neither works for ...

I never said I did or didn't attend, but generally, dead rock and roll stars have mobility problems.

If elvis did not go, he would not know what the truth is. He claims it is an honorable organisation, but how does he know that? Dangling a few carrots here and there to lead the donkeys, is not the only thing they do. Strange also that the starter of this topic has not reported back as to how well the recruitment drive went .
