South Australian Consolidated Acts24—Objection to valuation
(1) Subject to this
section, a person who is dissatisfied with a valuation of land in force under
this Act may, by notice in writing served personally or by post on
the Valuer-General, object to the valuation.
(1a) After notice of a
valuation (whenever made) is first served after the commencement of this
subsection on the owner or occupier of the land, an objection to the valuation
may only be made by the owner or occupier so served within 60 days after the
date of service of the notice.
(1b) However, if the
owner or occupier is served with a further notice of the valuation, the person
so served will have a further right to object to the valuation provided
that—
(a) the
further notice is the first notice of the valuation served on the person under
the Act under which the notice is served; and
(b) the
objection is made within 60 days after the date of service of that further
notice.
(1c) A person may not
make an objection to a valuation if the Valuer-General has previously
considered an objection by that person to the valuation.
(1d) For the purposes
of determining the period within which an objection to a valuation must be
made—
(a)
notice of the valuation sent by post to a person at a proper address for
service of the person will be taken to be served at that address at the end of
the second day after the day on which it was sent by post unless it is proved
that it was not delivered to that address at all; and
(b) an
apparently genuine document purporting to be issued by the authority that sent
the notice and to certify that a specified notice was sent by post on a
specified day to a specified person at a specified address will, in the
absence of proof to the contrary, constitute proof of the matters so
certified.
(2) A notice of
objection under subsection (1) must contain a full and detailed statement
of the grounds on which the objection is based.
