Council, at its meeting held on 17 June 2009, resolved to implement twenty four hour alcohol free areas in Machattie Park and Kings Parade under Section 632 of the Local Government Act, effective from 8 July 2009.
Council also adopted an alcohol free area exemption policy which outlines the process in gaining exemption to the twenty four hour alcohol free area for specific events.
The exemption will apply to special, irregular occasions including community events such as festivals or gatherings and small private events such as weddings or other family celebrations.
A fee of $5.50 will apply to each exemption application. The fee and completed permit application must be validated by Bathurst Regional Council prior to the event.
A copy of the policy and exemption permit is available below or by calling into Council offices at the corner of Russell and William Streets. Forms will also be available at the Visitor Information Centre.
Further information may be obtained by contacting the Cultural & Community Services Department on 6333 6523, during business hours.
