Council recently consulted with the community on a
policy and registration system which requires commercial dog walkers to
register with Council and comply with certain conditions in order to
operate their business on public land.
A draft policy was been prepared, which set out
conditions for the use of its parks and reserves by commercial dog
walking businesses. It outlined a registration system whereby commercial
dog walkers must register with Council, provide a copy of their public
liability insurance and then comply with certain conditions.
