Thank you for your co-operation.
Road Inspectors Wanted
We would like for members of the community to volunteer to be a road inspector for the shire. The role will involve providing a quarterly report to the shire detailing the conditions of your road and any repairs required in your area. We would like inspectors across the shire, so if you would like to get involved, please send you nomination to the CEO, Matthew Gilfellon via email ceo@dumbleyung.wa.gov.au, through the shire office or via SMS 0429 634 012.
Bain Estate Community Meeting
In September 2014, a Community Meeting was held for Council to receive feedback on how to set up the Bain Estate Future Fund. Following this meeting, Council developed the guidelines for the Bain Estate Future Fund. The Future Fund has now operated with these guidelines for three years, including a first pilot year.
Council now wishes to review how the Future Fund operates and wishes to receive community feedback. A community meeting will be held on Tuesday 20th March at 7:00pm at the Kukerin Hall. All community members are encouraged to attend.
Fines Enforcement Registry
The shire has now signed up to the Fines Enforcement Registry in order to provide a larger deterrent to the fines that we currently issue. This means that if you fail to pay a fine that has been issued by the shire, you may end up having your driver’s licence suspended until the fine is paid.
Responsible Dog Ownership
During February, a ranger representing the shire will be visiting homes in Dumbleyung and Kukerin to talk to owners about responsible dog ownership. The purpose of this visit is to inform you of your rights and obligations so that you know the right thing to do.
