Consultation has concluded, thank you for your submission
The draft Local Law No. 1 - Community Amenity was endorsed for public exhibition on 25 March 2025, and was open for comment until 30 April 2025. We are now reviewing feedback.
Council's Local Law No. 1 - Community Amenity is due for review and we've worked to update it to make it easier to find provisions, and to ensure it meets our legislated obligations.
Some of the important changes include:
Reorganising the structure so its provisions can be located easily
Updated and simplified the language and definitions
Updated or removed provisions due to changes in legislation since the current local law was adopted
Used more consistent language and reviewed penalties in line with similar local laws at other Victorian Councils
Strengthened provisions relating to waste management, firewood collection and animal management.
The full draft is here or located in the sidebar under 'documents'. We've also included a copy of the Waste Management Strategy 2025, which is incorporated into the Local Law, and the 2018 Local Law this is replacing.
