Local Law Review

Whitehorse News - July 2023

From animals to building site management, local laws enable Council to create a safe, vibrant and harmonious community. 

To ensure our local laws continue to reflect the needs of our community, we are reviewing them and we want to hear from you! 

Local laws are designed to: 

  • respond to issues in the community 
  • protect and enhance public health, safety and amenity 
  • support a clean and healthy environment 
  • protect Council assets. 

This review process only occurs once every decade, making your participation even more vital. 

It is your chance to voice your opinions on a wide range of topics, from safety issues to environmental sustainability, to what you can do in Council reserves and owning animals. 

Your feedback will help us identify emerging issues and address concerns in Whitehorse. 

Feedback closes on 31 July 2023. Tell us your thoughts
