Why the ban? Dogs are not the problem at Eldon Way park
This is a very convenient park for early-morning walkers also, and maybe a time restriction for dogs could be put on the park to accommodate everyone.
I also stated to Arun that the problem with this park was not dogs and owners but the intimidation from older teens, who then leave their rubbish and tins around, with other even less desirable items.

They also said that a proposed dog control notice (ban on dogs) was put up, but ripped down by vandals (say no more).
However, if you look at the council's website, there is no mention of the Eldon Way park being affected by these changes.
It would seem the decision was made and we have no say, as most things are with this council!
