Animal infringement
Information on how to appeal or pay an animal infringement notice.
Council encourages responsible pet ownership. We are concerned both about animal welfare and the protection of our community's environment.
When an animal's behaviour becomes a problem, an infringement notice may be issued to the animal's owner. Penalties vary depending on the nature of the offence.
How to appeal
Complete the Animal infringement objection form and attach any supporting documents. Objections must be submitted within 28 days after the infringement notice was issued.
Upon receipt of the objection form, the infringement will be suspended until you receive a written reply to the outcome of your objection (about 10 days). If the objection is unsuccessful an extension of 14 days will be provided before payment must be made.
