Infringement notices - your options

Council issues infringement notices for various offences under legislation and Council’s local laws.

If you have received an infringement notice from Council, you can respond in one of four ways. Please click on the links below for important information regarding each of these options.

If you do not respond by the due date shown on the notice, Council will send a Penalty Reminder Notice which may include additional costs. If a Penalty Reminder Notice is not responded to, Council may refer the matter to the Magistrates’ Court, or to Fines Victoria.
