- Dogs Local Law 2020
- Extractive Industries Local Law 2015

Local Laws are made under the Local Government Act 1995 and help regulate activities within the Shire of Collie. They provide rules and standards that support community safety, protect public health, manage the use of public spaces and ensure the effective delivery of local government services.
Community input is an important part of the review process. Following the receipt of community submissions, a report will be prepared for presentation to the November 2026 Ordinary Council Meeting. Council will determine whether each Local Law should be repealed, amended, or remain unchanged. If Council determines that a Local Law should be amended, the Shire will commence the amendment process in accordance with section 3.12 of the Local Government Act 1995, which will include further community consultation.
Copies of the Local Laws are available on the Shire of Collie website at Local Laws | Shire of Collie, or may be viewed in person at the Shire of Collie Administration Office, 87 Throssell Street, Collie, or the Collie Public Library, 82 Wittenoom Street, Collie.
