Under the City's Health Local Law 2017, approval is required from the City for the keeping of bees within the district. Approval is subject to compliance with conditions in the Local Law and the support of surrounding residents.
Please refer to the City’s Bee Keeping Policy 2019 when preparing your application, and ensure essential considerations outlined within the policy are addressed.
The following steps are involved to apply for approval to keep bees:
The approval for the keeping of bees can be revoked at any time by the Chief Executive Officer, should there be a demonstrated public health nuisance. In the event that approval is revoked, the applicant has 21 days to remove all bees and hives from the property.
The City of Nedlands acknowledges the traditional custodians of this land, the Wadjak people of the Nyoongar Nation, and pays respect to the Elders both past and present.
