WBZ-TV's Courtney Cole and Eric Fisher report on Dennis taking steps to prevent a repeat of past Fourth of July beach trashing incidents. New restrictions at Mayflower Beach, Chapin Beach, and Bayview Beach include banning parking, limiting access to those with parking stickers, and enforcing zero tolerance for public drinking and unsafe behavior. Last year, thousands of young people caused chaos at Mayflower Beach, leading to arrests and tons of trash left behind. The restrictions are in place for this year's July 4th, with discussions ongoing for future changes.
