Important decisions

Proposed MAV motion on Domestic Animals Act review endorsed

Council endorsed a proposed motion for the MAV State Council meeting on 29 May 2026 calling on the Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action to promptly initiate a legislative review of the Domestic Animals Act 1994 and relevant companion regulations, including resetting penalties for nuisance animal infringements.

If progressed through MAV, this could influence future animal management rules and penalties affecting pet owners and neighbourhood amenity.

Planning scheme amendment sought for 3-5 Louisa Street, Croydon

Council resolved under section 16F of the Planning and Environment Act 1987 to seek authorisation from the Minister for Planning to prepare and exhibit Maroondah Planning Scheme Amendment C161maro, rezoning 3-5 Louisa Street, Croydon from Public Use Zone 6 - Local Government to Neighbourhood Residential Zone Schedule 6.
