Council Functions and Powers
Council functions and powers are dependent on State Government legislation. The Local Government Act 1993 and other legislative provisions clearly define the powers and responsibilities of council.
Council has no authority in regard to matters falling outside the mandatory or discretionary powers conferred by the legislation. Council is vested with a variety of specific powers to control, regulate, license or prevent and prohibit the matters deemed relevant to a local authority. These powers are administered through local laws adopted by council.
