Division 5.5.1

Division 5.5.1 Chargeable variations
Exempt variations—Act, s 276, def chargeable variation, par (c)
A variation of a holding lease is prescribed.
170AS 276E chargeable variations—Act, s 276A (1), def s 276E chargeable variation, par (h)
(1)The following chargeable variations are prescribed:
(a)for a retirement complex—a variation to increase the maximum number of—
(i)self-care units in the complex permitted under the lease; or
(ii)care beds in the complex permitted under the lease;
(b)for a nominal rent lease that authorises an incorporated association to use the land in the lease for a stated purpose—a variation to remove the reference in the lease to the association in relation to the stated purpose;
Example
A lease authorises an incorporated association to use land for office accommodation. The lessee applies for development approval to vary the lease to remove the reference to the association so that the lease may be used for office accommodation by anyone.
NoteAn example is part of the regulation, is not exhaustive and may extend, but does not limit, the meaning of the provision in which it appears (see Legislation Act, s 126 and s 132).
(c)for a childcare centre—a variation to increase the maximum number of children provided care in the centre permitted under the lease;
(d)a variation to limit the number of non-residential units (however described) permitted on the land under a non‑residential lease.
Example
A non-residential lease authorises commercial use of the land under the lease but does not limit the number of permitted buildings, units or structures on the land. The lessee proposes to subdivide the land under the Unit Titles Act 2001 and to develop a warehouse on the land into commercial and retail units. That Act, s 20 (4) does not allow the lease to be subdivided unless the lease states the number of units (however described) permitted on the land. The lessee must vary the lease to limit the number of units permitted on the land before subdividing the land.
