Byelaws
Byelaws for pleasure grounds, public walks and open spaces
A byelaw is a local law which is made by a statutory body, such as a local authority, under an enabling power established by an Act of Parliament. Since byelaws create criminal offences, they cannot come into effect unless they have been confirmed by a Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government.
Following the required consultation, approval of council and the Secretary of State, the byelaws were sealed on 5 October 2020 and will come into force on 4 November 2020 in respect of the parks and open spaces listed in the Schedules to the Byelaws.
The byelaws will effect all of the open spaces owned by Three Rivers DC and cover the whole of the geographical district of Three Rivers. The byelaws below do not cover the common land in Three Rivers, which are covered by separate legislation and can be found here
These relate in the main to the peaceful enjoyment of parks and open spaces and the suppression of nuisances.
The byelaws may also be viewed here.
