Council rangers
Council's rangers are responsible for investigating complaints and enforcing legislation throughout Eurobodalla. Our rangers work to provide consistent law enforcement to keep people safe and protect the environment, while ensuring community members can continue to enjoy the local area and lifestyle.
Most of the work rangers do, is in response to requests from community members and often involves an investigation.
