Environmental issues and matters are everyone’s responsibility. This is to ensure everyone is able to live in a healthy and safe environment now and in future generations.
The following pages will assist you with information on certain subjects, as well as advising where you can obtain further information. Some of the specific information relates to the following:
- burning off – the do’s and dont’s
- tree management – is your tree protected?
- weed control – are you required to remove certain weeds?
- caring for the environment, including GAMS, various environmental organisations and fire hazards
- noise – how noise can impact yourself and your neighbours
- abandoned vehicles – explains the process
For information not contained on our website, please feel free to contact Council at one of our locations.
Additionally Legal Aid Commission of Tasmania has produced a fact sheet discussing a number or environmental and neighbourhood issues.
