Consultation on the council’s proposals to renew the “Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council (Anti-Social Behaviour and Nuisance) Public Spaces Protection Order (PSPO)” (with variations)
The council is asking anyone who lives, works, does business, or visits the borough for their views on its proposal to renew the “Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council (Anti-Social Behaviour and Nuisance) Public Spaces Protection Order (PSPO)” for a further three years (until 19 October 2029).
The council proposes to retain the existing provisions controlling alcohol consumption and prohibiting public defecation, urination and aggressive begging within 11 designated town, village and local centres across the borough.
The council proposes to vary the Order as follows:
- by amending the extent of the Marske restricted area to incorporate the adjoining Marske valley gardens and neighbourhood
- by amending the extent of the Saltburn restricted area to incorporate the adjoining seaward side of Marine Parade and the Lower Promenade
- by introducing a new offence across all 11 restricted areas of “sitting, standing or loitering or being in possession of a receptacle used to obtain monies, for the purpose of asking for money or other objects or items…”

The council’s proposals would mean the council and its partners will retain powers to take action to tackle public drunkenness and alcohol related violence issues, and to continue to tackle public urination and defecation and antisocial begging related issues within 11 town, village, and local centres across the borough.
The council’s proposals also mean the council and its partners will take new powers to extend all these provisions to additional areas adjoining the Marske and Saltburn restricted areas and gain new powers to tackling antisocial begging related issues within the 11 restricted areas where these controls and prohibitions are currently in place in these 11 restricted areas.
