黑料大事

Session overview:

Property law issues frequently arise during the preparation and assessment of development applications. Property issues can also arise after the grant of development consent, when it is sought to be implemented.

In this session we will explore issues that planners commonly encounter, including owner’s consent, when it is required for off-site impacts and how it can be compelled; when it is reasonable to propose or accept conditions of consent requiring the registration of covenants on land; satisfying essential service clauses in planning instruments, including the proprietary rights necessary for ‘suitable vehicular access’ to be provided to a site; the reasonableness of conditions of consent that seek to require the dedication of land; and options available to seek easements over land from the Supreme Court or Land and Environment Court under section 88K of the Conveyancing Act 1919; amongst others.

About the Series:
