Litter

Rangers rely on the community to assist in identifying offenders of illegal dumping of rubbish and materials. Rangers check for illegal dumping of rubbish during regular patrols and vehicles and trailers en-route to waste disposal sites and the bushland are targeted for insecure loads or illegal dumping activities.

Litter can take many forms:

  • Rubbish thrown from a moving vehicle or by pedestrians
  • Building rubbish, household rubbish or green waste placed on street verges or in bushland
  • Improperly disposing of used syringes
  • Abandoned vehicles

Please call the Shire office on 9831 2400 or email council@kojonup.wa.gov.au to report any litter complaints.

Litter Fact Sheet

Vehicle Control

Abandoned Motor Vehicles

Abandoned vehicles can create hazards for motorists. Prompt removal is often required and the ranger works closely with Main Roads and local police to ensure this is carried out. Vehicle owners will be traced and contacted whenever possible and arrange towing and/or impounding and disposal of abandoned vehicles.

Parking

Unlawful parking practices cause considerable inconvenience and in some cases create dangerous situations. The issuing of Parking Infringement Notices is sometimes the only way of ensuring compliance with the restrictions. The ranger regular patrols special parking bays set aside for disabled persons.
