Councils in South Australia can establish by-laws under the Local Government Act 1999. By-laws are local laws developed by councils to address issues specific to the relevant council area.
The City of Norwood Payneham & St Peters currently has six by-laws, which apply only within the Council’s boundaries.
These came into effect on 24 December 2018 and are due to expire on 1 January 2026.
