Community Local Law

Council's Local Laws cover a range of rules governing how we live in our community. For example, these include the safety of people and property, animals, the land, general amenity, burning off and waste disposal.

The objectives of the Community Local Law are to provide for:

  • the peace and order of the municipality
  • a safe and healthy environment so that our community can enjoy a quality of life that meets its expectations
  • the safe enjoyment and fair use of public places
  • the protection of Council property
  • the amenity and environment of the municipality
  • the reasonable use and enjoyment of private land

At its Ordinary Meeting on 25 March 2020, Council resolved to adopt a new Local Laws, the 'Community Local Law 2020'. This law is now in effect and can be viewed by clicking on the link below.
