Dangerous, Affected, and Insanitary Buildings Policy

Council is gathering feedback from the community on the Draft Dangerous, Affected, and Insanitary Buildings Policy.


The intent of the Dangerous, Affected and Insanitary Buildings Policy is to reduce the risk of injury, death, ill health or damage that may occur as a result of dangerous, affected, and/or insanitary buildings.

Council has reviewed the current Policy and is proposing some changes to bring the Policy up to date and to make it clear how Council identifies, assesses and manages these buildings.

The Statement of Proposal summarises the proposed key changes in the Draft Policy and the two options out for public consideration. These are to either adopt the new Policy or to retain the current Policy.

The outcome of this consultation will guide Council in keeping our community safe from dangerous, affected, and insanitary buildings. So, ‘Let’s Talk’ and join the conversation now.
