View EOI guidelines and apply here
- All licence applications must be submitted using the online application form in accordance with the EOI Guidelines
- All business operators must have successfully applied for a licence PRIOR to conducting business use of open spaces.
We recognise the importance of a healthy and active community and supporting local business. While there’s an obligation to keep open space areas free for general community use, the undertaking of trade or business activities on open space reserves, beaches and parks can improve and activate these areas and provide a benefit to the community.
Any trade or business wishing to conduct activities on Council managed open space areas must apply for an annual temporary licence. Temporary licensing enables Council to regulate and monitor trade or business activities being conducted on open space reserves to ensure ecologically sustainable use and protection of these areas, and the safety and well-being of the community.
