What is a Community Land Management Plan?

As set out under section 196 of the Local Government Act 1999 (the Act), Council is required to prepare and adopt Community Land Management Plans for all lands that are under Council ownership or care and control that are deemed as community land.

A Community Land Management Plan is a document prepared by the Council, in consultation with the community to provide clarity and direction for the development, management, use and maintenance of its community land that is intended to be modified for community use or occupied under a lease or license, pursuant to sections 196(1)(b) and 196(1)(c) of the Act,

The Act specifies the content that CLMPs must include:

  • Identify the land to which it applies
  • State the purpose for which it is held by the Council
  • State the Council's objectives, policies and proposals for the management of the land
  • State performance targets and how the Council proposes to measure its performance against its objectives and performance targets (as far as practicable)
  • Be consistent with other relevant official plans and policies about conservation, development and use of the land.

Get Involved

This consultation is now CLOSED.

Feedback was received until 5 pm on Thursday, 21 December 2023.

Please note that all submissions, including the names of those responding may be tabled at a public meeting of Council unless otherwise indicated by the respondent in which case their details are to be excluded from publication.

Next Steps

A formal report will be prepared for presentation to Council for consideration and decision.
