New Beach use rules for Franklin District
August 03, 2006
New Franklin
District Council rules for use of vehicles on beaches, including
Kariotahi Beach came into force on August 1.
The
rules prohibit all vehicles and horses on dunes. You may cross a dune
to an adjoining property or road but only by the most direct route
possible and in a manner not causing any damage to the dune. The new
Bylaws carry fines up to $20,000.
The Council have set a beach "safe zone" at the Kariotahi Road end where most vehicle use is banned.
