Please note: From 15 March 2008 Beaudesert Shire Council's and Gold Coast City Council's local laws will continue to apply to their former areas within the new Logan City Council local government area until new local laws are adopted by Logan City Council for the whole city.
Local Laws exist to ensure there is responsible management of animals in Logan City. These laws aim to protect the community against the risk of injury, damage and nuisance from animals.
They also seek to protect the rights and expectations of the whole community.
As such, laws exist to:
- control how animals are kept;
- require registration of dogs;
- prevent nuisances;
- limit the numbers of animals allowed to be kept on properties; and
- provide enforcement and penalty provisions.
