New Residents Kit

Kentish Council appreciates how difficult relocating to a new area can be, so Council has developed a New Residents Kit to make the transition a little easier.

The New Residents Kit contains a variety of useful information on Council services and amenities, such as building services, dog registration, rubbish/recycling, asbestos removal etc.

Council also recommends obtaining a copy of the Kentish Local Services and Community Directory which lists businesses, community organisations and sporting bodies within the Kentish Municipal Area.

Whilst every effort has been made to ensure there is a wealth of information provided in the kit, Council staff are available to assist with enquires you may have that cannot be found in the kit or on this website.   Please call 6491 0200 during business hours for assistance.

Another useful publication for those moving to rural areas is "Living Next Door to a Farmer".  You can view the booklet online or collect a hard-copy booklet from the Council Office.
