Baw Baw Shire Council is reviewing its Community Local Law and we want you to have your say, your way!
The Community Local Law guides Council’s compliance and enforcement activities for a wide range of topics, including property amenity, construction sites and the keeping of animals.
By undertaking a review of the Community Local Law, Council can ensure it is meeting current community expectations while also protecting our residents, assets and facilities.
We would like your feedback on this local law and also invite you to share your ideas on other issues you think we should explore.
Feedback from this initial round of consultation will help us consider emerging issues and ensure the local law is relevant.
Council will host a series of community pop-up sessions across the Shire, to give everyone the chance to have their say in person, as well as online.
These sessions will kick off on 2 March and run until the end of the month, with the community engagement closing on Thursday 28 March.
Visit www.bawbawconnect.com.au/locallawreview to find out more, have your say, and see where your closest in-person session is. They are happening all over Baw Baw, from Drouin to Yarragon and Trafalgar.
Baw Baw Shire Mayor Cr Annemarie McCabe said the Community Local Law review was an important engagement piece, which gives Council an opportunity to better understand community needs and expectations and deliver more value for our residents.
“By taking a look at our Community Local Law we have an ideal chance to tap into the thoughts and ideas of our residents and ensure we’re in touch with what they want and need,” Cr McCabe said.
