Dog
Droppings
Dog droppings are often
offensive to other people. Cleaning up your dog's droppings helps prevent
pollution of our waterways through stormwater drains.
Pet owners should carry a bag to clean up after their dog if it fouls when in a public place. Dog litter bags must be waterproof and be sealed after use. Properly sealed dog litter bags may be placed in Council's public litter bins or in your household garbage bin.
If you do not carry a dog litter bag and/or if your dog's litter is not picked up, you may be fined $100 by Council officers.
