Our Logo
"In designing this Logo consideration was given to the vital and growing effects the sun has on all aspects of a healthy and prosperous life. Here, it is represented in a loose design by the Swirl in traditional sun yellow colour. Under the swirl are two stripes. The red stripe represents the earth of the South Burnett, while the green represents the foliage and crops that make the region so famous and bountiful."

Overgrown Property
Council policy requires the owners of urban properties to maintain their land in a neat and tidy condition. This includes being free from overgrown or long grass. Apart from aesthetic reasons, this policy helps reduce the risk of fire and vermin harbourage.
Regular inspections are conducted to ascertain as to whether allotments are overgrown. If an allotment is found overgrown Council will serve a Notice on the landowner requiring the land to be cleared within a prescribed period of time. Failure to comply with this Notice may result in a Council contractor entering and clearing the allotment at your expense or an Infringement Notice being issued, depending on where your property is located. For further information on overgrown allotments please contact your local Council Customer Service Centre.
