78 Classification and reclassification of public land

(1) The objective of this clause is to enable the Council, by means of this plan, 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 plan to discharge trusts on which public reserves are held if the land is reclassified under this plan as operational land.

(2) The public land described in Part 1 or Part 2 of Schedule 2 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 2 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 2:

(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 2, to the extent (if any) that it is a public reserve, ceases to be a public reserve on the commencement of the relevant classification plan and, by the operation of that plan, 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 2, 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 ).

(6) In this clause, the "relevant classification plan", in relation to land described in Part 2 of Schedule 2, means this plan or, if the description of the land is inserted into that Part by another environmental planning instrument, that instrument.

(7) Before the relevant classification plan inserted a description of land into Part 2 of Schedule 2, the Governor approved of subclause (5) applying to the land.
