- Hooded plover signs are a place rule: dogs are prohibited within 20 metres of a breeding site and on a leash within a signed on-leash zone. Jetties are prohibited. This clock cannot see signs. The foreshore list is the 8 September 2015 resolution, still published in the council’s by-law compilation. The 16 July 2024 resolution did not revoke it.
