In our municipality, all prescribed accommodation businesses must be registered with Swan Hill Rural City Council and follow regulations to help minimise health risks.
If you are purchasing an accommodation business that has an existing business registration, an application must be made to Council to transfer the registration to the new owner of the business.
How to transfer
What happens next?
After your application is submitted, there are a few more steps that must be taken before your registration can be confirmed.
Council assesses your application
After your application is received and the application fee has been paid, an Environmental Health Officer will review the submitted documents.
Risk assessment
An Environmental Health Officer will contact you to arrange an appointment to meet onsite and conduct a risk assessment. A report will then be issued listing any non-conformances.
Final inspection
After any non-conformances have been attended to, an Environmental Health Officer will attend to conduct a final inspection.
Certificate of Registration
Following the final inspection, a Certificate of Registration will be issued.
