Vegetation Control

Council contractors undertake vegetation control across the district, applying herbicides to pest plants and unwanted weed growth in footpaths and on road shoulders.

This work is carried out in both urban and rural areas, with Tordon Brushkiller and Hlyphosate used.

If you don't want herbicides applied to the road frontage outside your property, you can request to be added to our No Spray Register. Those currently on the No Spray Register can also request to be removed.

One condition of being added to the No Spray Register is that you must agree to take over the control of noxious weeds in your road frontage, including:

• the verge,

• footpath,

• the kerb and channel area of the carriageway.

If you do not control the weeds in the road frontage of your property, our contractors will resume spraying.

We post a Weekly Spray Report every Friday morning which details anticipated areas where spraying will occur during the following week. You'll find the latest report below:
