- exercising a right of occupation and use of a specified part of a council area by an incorporated association
- conducting a street parade, festival, fundraiser, vintage car display, novelty vehicle race or training event.
You will need to:

- Apply to the Council for a travelling stock permit if you intend to drive stock for more than one day.
You will need to notify the relevant State department if you intend to drive stock across a State owned main road.
Street stalls will need approval and must meet the prescribed criteria, complete the application form and pay the prescribed fee.
If you need development approval and receive approval for your activities on public land as part of that approval process, you will not need to obtain a separate approval.
