LOCAL GOVERNMENT ACT 1995 - SECT 3.27

3.27 .         Particular things local governments can do on land that is not local government property

        (1)         A local government may, in performing its general function, do any of the things prescribed in Schedule 3.2 even though the land on which it is done is not local government property and the local government does not have consent to do it.

        (2A)         In subsection (1) land includes Crown land the subject of a pastoral lease within the meaning of the Land Administration Act 1997 section 3.

        (2)         Schedule 3.2 may be amended by regulations.

        (3)         If Schedule 3.2 expressly states that this subsection applies, subsection (1) does not authorise anything to be done on land that is being used as the site or curtilage of a building or has been developed in any other way, or is cultivated.

        (4A)         For the purposes of subsection (3), planting pasture on land for grazing does not amount to cultivating the land.

        (4)         Nothing in subsection (3) prevents regulations amending Schedule 3.2 from stating that subsection (3) applies, or excluding its application, in relation to a particular matter.

        [Section 3.27 amended: No. 17 of 2009 s. 8]
