Depending on your approved activity other supporting documents may also be required.
Renew your local law approval or licence
Council will issue your local law approval or licence renewal notice by email. Renewal notices are only sent by post when there is no registered email address with Council or if requested.
The approval or licence you have determines the type of renewal you will receive:
- food businesses will receive an offer of renewal and a licence renewal notice
- local law approval holders will receive an offer of renewal
- higher risk personal appearance service businesses will receive a licence renewal notice
- holders of an Environmental Authority will receive an annual notice.
Because Environmental Authorities do not expire, Council will not issue an updated certificate.
The due date for payment is on your notice. New licence certificates and approvals will only be issued when fees are paid in full.
