Security Bond

A fully refundable security bond is payable for all medium or high risk events, prior to the event taking place. Bonds will be invoiced along with any fees payable on the receipt of your application. Security bonds are fully refundable at the conclusion of the event once a post event inspection has been carried out by Council and is found satisfactory and paid via EFT transfer.

* The final fees and the amount of security bond payable may vary and exceed the amounts shown depending on the specific event circumstances at Council's discretion. Major events and events that require exclusive use are likely to attract higher fees and security bond.
