Consultation has concluded

A 2018/19 priority action identified within the Council Plan 2017-2021 involves the finalisation of a new Gambling Policy for Maroondah to replace the previous policy developed in 2007.

The Policy aims to:

  • provide a ‘whole of Council’ approach to preventing and minimising gambling-related harm in the community
  • describe Council’s policy position on gambling in the municipality
  • outline key priorities relating to service provision, advocacy and Council’s statutory, strategic and regulatory roles.

From the research and consultation undertaken, a strategic framework has been developed and a set of commitments identified to outline Council’s policy position in relation to gambling.

Three priority areas are identified within this strategic framework: partnerships, advocacy and planning, regulation and enforcement. See the Draft Policy in the Document Library.
