Growth & Recovery says during the engagement phase
earlier in the year Council staff heard from the community
on a range of issues around kept animals.
“We heard
from the community that most people were comfortable with

and additions to reduce health and safety risk, and in the
prevention of nuisance.
“We now want to seek

revisions reflect the needs of our community,” Ms Tod
