Dogs on the Beach Survey (Active 8/25-10/2/2023)

Thank you to all who participated in our initial Hot Topics survey! It proved to be a popular topic, and one that many feel passionately about. Decision-makers will consider these results, along with other data and factors.

The question was: Are you in favor of allowing leashed dogs on the beach or boardwalk during certain limited hours from May 1-September 30? Green in the chart below indicates a "yes" response - dogs should be allowed during certain limited hours during the summer season. Yellow indicates a "no" response - the rules should be left as they are. Purple indicates "other." Here are the results:
