This page contains information about our bylaws.

Updated: 16/05/2013 2:39 p.m.

Local councils have the power to make bylaws controlling a wide range of activities.

They are made for one or more of the following purposes:

protecting the public from nuisance
protecting, promoting, and maintaining public health and safety
minimising the potential for offensive behaviour in public places.

Our bylaws cover a wide range of Council functions. When making, reviewing or revoking a bylaw, we consult with the public before making a decision.
