Council By-Law Review
City of Mount Gambier is seeking community feedback on its proposed By-Laws – the powers enacted via the Local Government Act 1999 to set certain rules about the activities permitted, activities that require permission, and activities that are prohibited in the city.
“By-Laws are used, along with a range of other mechanisms, to ensure that residents and visitors to our Council area can enjoy a clean and safe city,” City of Mount Gambier Governance and Property Manager Brittany Shelton said.
Council currently regulates activity through five By-Laws, including:
No. 1 – Permits and Penalties
No. 2 – Local Government Land
No. 3 – Roads
No. 4 – Moveable Signs
No. 5 – Dogs.
By-Laws must be reviewed every seven years. The review includes the consideration of changes in relevant legislation and compliance requirements or activities of Council, and issues of significance to the community which may be reasonably regulated by a By-Law.
