SERVICES & ORGANISATION COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                    7 AUGUST 2018


Remaining procedural steps to finalise the local law making process
Pending Council’s approval to make the amending local laws, after its consideration of the public
interest test report and public consultation submissions, the remaining procedural steps outlined
below will be undertaken:
     Publishing a public notice on Council’s Website that Council has made the amending local
       laws;
     Publishing a notice in the Queensland Government Gazette;
     Providing the Minister of Local Government with a copy of the Gazatte Notice, a copy of the
       certified amending local laws, the public interest test report, and copy of a certified
       consolidated version of each local law amended; and
     Updating Council’s register of local laws.
Pursuant to section 32 of the Statutory Instruments Act 1992, the amending local laws will
commence on the date, which the notice of making them is published in the gazette.
Previous Council Consideration
At the Ordinary Meeting of 19 April 2018, Council adopted to propose to make amending local
laws as reported to the General Committee Meeting of 16 April 2018. These were the amending
local laws that went out to public consultation.
Finance
The proposed amendments will not have any significant impact on Council or the Community
from a financial perspective.
Risks & Opportunities
It is considered prudent to ensure that Council’s local laws remain current and effective in order
to achieve the strategic compliance and enforcement objectives of Council. Ensuring that Council
has a practical and relevant local law system in place further protects the Noosa Community.
Consultation
External Consultation - Community & Stakeholder
King and Company Lawyers have been engaged by Council to assist with the local law
amendment process and drafting the amending local laws.
Internal Consultation
The development of the amending local laws involved internal consultation with a number of
operational areas across Council and the project group, which included Council’s Local Law
Manager, Waste and Environmental Health Manager, Waste and Environmental Health
Coordinator, Manager Development Assessment, and Director Community Services.
