City of Swan Local Law Relating to Prevention & Abatement of Sand Drift
Delegated Legislation Joint Committee (1987 - 2001)· 23 November 2000general_report
The Delegated Legislation Joint Committee reviewed the City of Swan's local law regarding sand drift prevention. The Committee found clause 8(c) of the law, which allows the City to place a caveat on land titles to recover costs, to be outside the scope of the Local Government Act 1995 and potentially unfair. They recommended disallowance of the clause.
Impact
Landowners and occupiers in the City of Swan are affected, particularly those who lease their land. The law could lead to caveats being placed on properties even if the owner isn't responsible for the sand drift issue.
