By-laws

Council By-Laws are able to be made by a Council in accordance with Section 246 of the Local Government Act 1999. By-Laws are local laws established by councils to deal with issues specific to the relevant council area. Council can issue penalties including expiation notices (fines) for non-compliance of its By-Law.

Every seven years Council must consider and adopt new By-laws which includes a long and comprehensive consultative process.
