Candidate campaign material
Election signage is governed under the Planning and Environment framework including the related Planning schemes, as well as the Electoral Act. Council seeks to promote compliance through cooperation. Council’s general approach is to request that the property owner or candidate remove non-complying signs. Fines may be applied where the property owner or candidate does not cooperate or where multiple offences have occurred. Read more about Candidate Election Material.
