All feedback received will help inform Council's review of the Access for Dogs Policy and associated Dog Off-Leash Guide.
Shoalhaven City wants to hear from all users of public areas to gain a better understanding of how people currently share these spaces, including our natural areas with dogs, and ideas of how this could be improved in the future.
Mayor of Shoalhaven City Councillor, Amanda Findley, encourages everyone to take the survey.
"Council is seeking feedback from everyone. People who live here all the time, people who live here some of the time and people who visit our beautiful region" Cr Findley said.
"We want to hear people's experiences and thoughts on what they believe encourages positive shared use of space with our pets.
"You can submit your feedback through our online form, or pop by one of our drop-in sessions and speak with Council Staff directly" Clr Findley said.
"I encourage everyone to not only complete the survey but also pass it on to your family and friends who spend time in the Shoalhaven, no matter where they live.
"We want to ensure public spaces in the Shoalhaven a positive and friendly place for both pet owners and those who prefer to walk alone alike." Clr Findley noted.
The community has until midnight on Monday July 26 2021 to provide their feedback on the current Access for Dogs Policy and associated Dog Off-Leash Guide through the Online Survey.
Individuals can also attend Community Drop-In Sessions where they will have the opportunity to speak with council staff regarding any questions they may have on the Policy or the review progress.
