By-Laws

By-Laws

Councils in South Australia are able to establish By-Laws, under the Local Government Act, 1999.

By-laws are local laws established by Councils to deal with issues specific to the relevant council area.

Copper Coast Council currently has seven (7) By-Laws, which will apply only within the Copper Coast boundaries. These  By-Laws will come into effect from 22nd June 2024 and expire on 1st January 2032.

What are By-laws?

By-Laws are used to manage, control and regulate activities within the boundaries of the City.

By-Laws are supplementary to existing legislation and are made subject to an Act of Parliament or Regulations made hereunder. Council may limit the area or time that a By-Law is active.
