Domestic Animal Management Plan
The plan aims to balance the competing demands of pet owners and the community, and encourages responsible pet ownership.
A Domestic Animal Management Plan has been developed under the Victorian Government requirement outlined in the Domestic (Feral & Nuisance) Animals Act.
The positive affects of animal/pet ownership on health and wellbeing are also recognised.
Animal management issues reviewed as part of this plan included:
- community safety
- managing the risk of dog attacks
- amenity issues resulting from domestic animals in high density living
- environmental issues such as disposal of dog faeces
- management of cats in our community
- signage in public open space
- community education relating to responsible pet ownership
- the regulatory framework.
