All new and replacement driveway crossovers will need a Council permit - there is no fee, only a procedure to follow.

If the crossover is to be provided for access related to an approved development under a Council Planning Permit the location must be in accordance with the approved plan. Please see the application form for details.

Council is responsible for vegetation and weed management within its road reserves.
Management methods for the control of vegetation include mowing, slashing and the use of chemical herbicides to eradicate vegetation growing in the road reserve.
Council undertakes a minimum of 2 spray cycles per year, covering all urban areas across the municipal area.
