On Wednesday 9 April 2025, Russell Kennedy hosted a webinar session on Managing nuisances on unoccupied land or where the occupier/owner is unknown or cannot be found.

This webinar delved into section 66 of the Public Health and Wellbeing Act 2008 (Vic), which outlines a unique compliance option for Council where there is a statutory nuisance on unoccupied land or occupied land where the occupier and owner is unknown or cannot be found.

This webinar is part of a series of sessions.

This webinar was presented by Principal Louisa Dicker and Special Counsel Marcus Heath, who have specialised knowledge and experience in this area of law.

Future Webinars

In 2025 Louisa, Marcus, and the wider Government, Planning and Environment team at Russell Kennedy will be delivering a series of online sessions aimed at supporting Local Government – Environmental Health professionals. If you have a request for a future webinar topic, please submit it for consideration via events@rk.com.au.
