[Updated 6 November 2004]

Vandalism / Breaking and Entering

Richmond Valley Council is experiencing vandalism/breaking and entering to the buildings and properties under its control. The cost to the community for equipment replacement, cleaning and repairs has risen dramatically in recent years.

The community can assist Council in preventing these crimes by reporting all incidents to the Police.

If you see a crime being committed with suspects on the site please contact the Police on 000.

If the crime has been committed and the suspect has left the site please contact the Police Assistance Line on 131 444.

Council has allocated up to $2000 as a reward to citizens providing information relating to vandalism/damage to Council property throughout its area and resulting in a successful prosecution, with the level of the reward to be determined after discussion with the local Police.
