Safety
The RBHA board has identified safety as an important issue for residents and visitors. Most residents have plenty of stories of regulations ignored and dangerous behavior throughout Rehoboth Beach. For this reason, the RBHA decided to focus on non-vehicular and non-criminal public safety. Boiling this down, it means we are working on promoting safety for pedestrians, cyclists, skateboarders, joggers, etc. You can keep up with our efforts on a new safety webpage here...
