Valuation of Land Act 1960 - SECT 13DD

Extension by special order of period for making valuations

13DD. Extension by special order of period for making valuations







(1) If a council is of the opinion that no general appreciable change has
taken place in the value of rateable land within the municipal district or,
having first consulted the Minister, that special circumstances make
compliance with section 13DC(2) to (9) unnecessary or impracticable, the
council may by resolution (before the end of the second year of the use of the
valuation) extend the period of use of the existing valuation for such period
not exceeding 2 years as the council thinks fit.

(2) If the period is extended by less than 2 years, the council may by
resolution (at least three months before the expiration of any period of
extension) from time to time further extend the period but so that the total
of the periods of the extension and the further extension or extensions do not
exceed 2 years.

(3) The owner or occupier of any rateable land within the municipal district
may make a submission under section 223 of the Local Government Act 1989 in
respect of any resolution made under subsection (1) or (2).

(4) A resolution does not have any force or effect unless it (whether with or
without variation with respect to the length of the period of extension) is
approved by the Governor in Council, who may approve it with a variation
providing that the extension is to be for a period other than that set out in
the resolution, in which case the resolution as varied has full force and
effect.
