Rangers Finalists For Environment Award Rangers Finalists For Environment Award Bass Coast Shire Council’s Community Safety Rangers are finalists in the Keep Australia Beautiful - Protection of the Environment Award. By Bass Coast - 13th July 2012 - Back to News Community and Economic Development Director, Steve Piasente, said the nomination recognised the innovative program the Rangers ran over the summer months educating dog owners to ‘do the right thing’.
"We took a positive approach as part of a two-week campaign to increase awareness of responsible pet ownership and Council’s local regulations among residents and visitors," said Mr Piasente.
"Rangers provided leads for dogs that were not on a leash and gave out handy dog poo bags to encourage people to clean up after their pet."
Judges visited Bass Coast during the recent Pet Expo to see first hand Council’s promotion of responsible pet ownership.
"The judges discussed the program with Council staff and looked at the program’s display which gave important information on why it ran, current service levels, outcomes of the two week activity and future options," said Mr Piasente.
"They were impressed with the partnerships formed with other agencies and the initiatives put in place to ensure the program is ongoing."
Winners of the Keep Australia Beautiful Victoria Awards will be announced on Friday, 27 July in Melbourne.
For more information on being a responsible pet owner, log onto www.basscoast.vic.gov.au or call our Community Safety Team on 1300 BCOAST (226 278).
