All prescribed accommodation must be registered with Council's Environmental Health Department in order to operate. Registration is valid from January to December, with renewals due by the 1st of January each year.

If you are purchasing a prescribed accommodation premise, it is important that you tranfer the registration into your own name. To do this you need to complete an Application to Register or Transfer Registration of Accommodation Premise.  A fee of $110.00 is required to be paid.

It is recommended that you arrange a pre-purchase inspection prior to purchasing a business. This is a check to determine if there are any outstanding issues that fall under the Health Act 1958.

A Consent to the release of information and documents form will need to be completed by the current owner prior to the inspection carried out. A fee of $110.00 is required to be to paid by the person requesting the inspection.
