Miscellaneous provisions

25      Relevant acquisition authority

(1)

The objective of this clause is to identify, for the purposes of section 27 of the Act, the authority of the State that will be the relevant authority to acquire land reserved for certain public purposes if the land is required to be acquired under Division 3 of Part 2 of the Land Acquisition (Just Terms Compensation) Act 1991 (the owner-initiated acquisition provisions).

27      Classification and reclassification of public land

(1)

The objective of this clause is to enable the Council to classify or reclassify public land as “operational land” or “community land” in accordance with Part 2 of Chapter 6 of the Local Government Act 1993.

Note. Under the Local Government Act 1993, “public land” is generally land vested in or under the control of a council (other than roads, Crown reserves and commons). The classification or reclassification of public land may also be made by a resolution of the Council under section 31, 32 or 33 of the Local Government Act 1993. Section 30 of that Act enables this Precinct Plan to discharge trusts on which public reserves are held if the land is reclassified under this Precinct Plan as operational land.

(2)

The public land described in Part 1 or Part 2 of Schedule 4 is classified, or reclassified, as operational land for the purposes of the Local Government Act 1993.

(3)

The public land described in Part 3 of Schedule 4 is classified, or reclassified, as community land for the purposes of the Local Government Act 1993.

(4)

The public land described in Part 1 of Schedule 4:

(a)

does not cease to be a public reserve to the extent (if any) that it is a public reserve, and

(b)

continues to be affected by any trusts, estates, interests, dedications, conditions, restrictions or covenants that affected the land before its classification, or reclassification, as operational land.

(5)

The public land described in Part 2 of Schedule 4, to the extent (if any) that it is a public reserve, ceases to be a public reserve when the description of the land is inserted into that Part and is discharged from all trusts, estates, interests, dedications, conditions, restrictions and covenants affecting the land or any part of the land, except:

(a)

those (if any) specified for the land in Column 3 of Part 2 of Schedule 4, and

(b)

any reservations that except land out of the Crown grant relating to the land, and

(c)

reservations of minerals (within the meaning of the Crown Lands Act 1989).

Note. In accordance with section 30 (2) of the Local Government Act 1993, the approval of the Governor to subclause (5) applying to the public land concerned is required before the description of the land is inserted in Part 2 of Schedule 4.

the development is not inconsistent with the objectives for development in both zones, and

(b)

the carrying out of the development is desirable due to compatible land use planning, infrastructure capacity and other planning principles relating to the efficient and timely development of land.

Nothing in this clause requires consent to carry out development on any land if that development could, but for this clause, be carried out on that land without consent.

30      Classified roads

where practicable, vehicular access to the land is provided by a road other than the classified road, and

(b)

the safety, efficiency and ongoing operation of the classified road will not be adversely affected by the proposed development as a result of:

(i)      the design of the vehicular access to the land, or

(ii)      the emission of smoke or dust from the proposed development, or

(iii)      the nature, volume or frequency of vehicles using the classified road to gain access to the land, and

(c)

the development is of a type that is not sensitive to traffic noise or vehicle emissions, or is appropriately located and designed, or includes measures, to ameliorate potential traffic noise or vehicle emissions within the site of the proposed development.
