FAQs

A local law review is the formal process to check if it is working well and suitable for the community.  

You can view the current local law online via the City’s website or request a printed copy from any City library or the Administration Centre.

We’re reviewing our local laws to make sure they still work well for our community. If something impacts you as a resident, this is your chance to tell us what’s working, what isn’t, and what could be improved.  

When giving feedback, think about what is working well, what could be improved, and whether current local laws are clear, fair, and practical for the community. You can share experiences, concerns, or suggestions. Consider:

• Are there any problems you experience regularly with these local laws?
• How could these rules be improved to better help the community, local businesses, or the City?
• Are there State Government laws that already cover the same issues?
• Are there areas where rules seem outdated, unclear, or unnecessary?
• Do the local laws balance community safety and fairness? 

All submissions received during the consultation period will be carefully considered by the City and included in a report to Council. Based on the feedback and review findings, Council may decide to amend, repeal, or retain the local law.
